Everything happens in 3's

My mom and I have always had the philosophy that all bad things happen in three's. Throughout my life, this has been proven to be true, over and over again. The latest example clustered itself on Sean's side of the family.
1. Sean's step-brother -in-law, Ben, totally healthy, had a seizure a few weeks ago..they took him to the hospital and found he had a brain tumor. Luckily this turned out to not be cancer, but still needed to be removed. So he had brain surgery last week to remove the tumor. He is a husband, and father of 4 little ones. It's been a very scary time, we are so glad to hear that he is now on the road to physical therapy and recovery. Our thoughts and prayers are with Ben, Denise and their family.
2. Sean's Uncle Ken, his Dad's brother, passed away last week, a day or two before Ben's surgery was scheduled.
3. Sean's Grandmother Winnie, his Mom's mother, passed away this week as well. I'm so glad that Sean's mom Vickie, and sister Sharon were able to visit her last month. I'm sure that meant the world to her and eased her passing.
It's a sad time when things like this happen, and to have so many happen at once is overwhelming. I can only wish everyone good health for a long time to come!
