In 2009 a co-worker at my office was making insensitive jokes about Patrick Swayze's thin appearance due to having pancreatic cancer. Our accounts receivable gal warned him that making fun of other peoples health issues could result in karma coming back and biting him hard. It did just that. In April of last year he himself was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, and took a leave of absence to seek treatment. I found out this morning that he passed away, as I stumbled upon his obituary in the Sunday news paper. He was 46. Wife and two kids. I don't personally believe in Karma, as I think it's just a coincidence, but still.. it was something that makes you think.
