Why is it the nice ones that suffer?

I have had to deal with a lot of bad things in my life. I'm not going to bore you with details but they have made me to be a strong person. The last week however has been hard. My uncle, who lives in Madison has been sick for a while but it wasn't until recently that he developed kidney failure. We spent the last week there with him while he got dialysis and other treatments to try and help things and they would get better then worse and he is still not doing well but that is not really why I'm writing. It makes me wonder with all the nice people that these horrible things happen to why does it always happen to the people that seem to be the nicest or have the most going for them. Like what happened with Alicia this last weeks what the heck are people thinking. Everyone in the town loved her and she gets killed. Tell me how this is fair. You never hear about how the abusive boyfriend dies or how these horrible people got hurt and are paralyzed it's always the nice people. Then I got to thinking, maybe it is not that we don't hear about it, maybe it is that we don't care when it happens to someone that was abusive or drank heavily. Maybe we still like to look at the best in some people when we are close to them and still say just because they had this problem doesn't make them bad. I don't know why it seems like it is that way. I just can't seem to get it out of my head. Any thoughts?

Nobel Paper

When researching my nobel winner I found some interesting information that got me thinking. He studied stem cells in mice. I'm not going to go into detail telling how he did it, if you really want to know that then i'll send you the paper when i'm done and you can read it then. Basically he studied how to give mice cancer and other illnesses so that they can study it from start to death. I am torn in two directions if it's right to do this or not. On one side if it helps them find a cure then hey go for it. On the other hand these are living creatures and who says we have the right to basically kill them. I was talking about this with my sons sitter and she mad a good point. She said that if you believe in the bible and all that God gave humans the right over all animals to do with them what we need to to live, (and cure illnesses). On the other hand if you believe in PETA then we have no right to do this to the mice. However, i have a feeling that the first person that believes in PETA gets cancer they will want them to be researching on mice and testing things to find a cure.
