wraithfodderI turn on the computer this morning to check the news and twitter, and it's just seconds before I find out that Andy Whitfield ("Spartacus") lost his battle against non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. He leaves behind a wife, two small children and a sister.
Ah, sigh. Sooo darned sad. I'd been worried that this cancer was aggressive because they'd cleared him at one point but then said it had come back. When cancer comes back that fast.... :(

Sad, given his age, family including a wife and children.
RIP

More than anything, my thoughts are with his wife, kids and family right now.

I'll probably die with the cat planting his butt on my face, but I'm sure it's his way of expressing affection...
