I didn't know John very well, but now and then we'd have a brief, pleasant chat. Somewhere along our paths, I realized that he had been absent from school for some time-maybe a week or more. When he came back, I asked him what had happened. He said he was in the hospital, and he had been diagnosed with diabetes. I didn't know much about it at the time, but I knew enough to be shocked and concerned. I could see both of those things in his own eyes as well. I think he fought a valiant fight against a ravaging disease for most of his life, and he's had my respect ever since that day, so long ago. May God bless his family.
