I've been down lately

Not like, super down, but pretty down. I think I hide it well, though. I laugh at like every little thing and I'm a smiley person, so showing negative emotions isn't really my thing. But I got 3 different pieces of crappy news last week, and it's really put me in a funk.
Two dear friends of mine from soccer each have a parent with cancer. This just really sucks because I love those girls so much. We played soccer together all through high school, and if you've played a high school sport, then you understand the bond you end up building with people you spend every day with for like 3 months straight. Soccer was a huge part of my life in high school, so those girls were a huge part as well. It just really kills me that they have to be dealt such a horrible hand. Cancer is a scary and terrifying thing, and I can't imagine finding out that sort of news about my mom or dad. It's hard enough being away from my family sometimes, and I'm pretty sure getting the cancer news would put me over the edge. I can't imagine how hard it must be for these girls. I give them so much credit for being strong, because I would be a complete mess.
The other crappy news I got was also cancer news. My best friend's grandpa has it. This news hit me the hardest. This girl's family has been my family ever since my freshman year of high school, and I've grown close with them. I've even spent time with her grandparents. They have a lake house and my friend and I have visited there a lot over the years. I was just there this past summer, actually. And I love her grandparents. They are so awesome and loving. Her grandpa is freakin hilarious and he served our country in the navy. He is a great guy to look up to, not to mention his sailing skills. So finding out that he has cancer really hit home. I've really been struggling with it too. I'm so scared that the worse will happen, and I'm so afraid for my friend. I don't want her to have to deal with this while also having to deal with school. It's just not fair.
I've been praying a lot. A lot. I pray that my girls' family members will get better. I pray for surgery instead of chemo, because that's usually a good sign. I pray that they be healed entirely. I pray for good health for my family. I pray that I will have the strength to be there for my friends. I pray for pretty much everything. I pray that maybe I wont be in this funk for much longer.
