Editor’s Corner

There was an article written by Al-ice Lesch Kelly in 2007 titled TheStruggle to Move Beyond 'Why Me?'that appeared in the New York Times.

In the article, Kelly explains her re-action to finding out that she had Stage 2 breast cancer atthe age of 41, despite doing all the right things to behealthy.

When Kelly asked why this had happened to her, a doc-tor gave her a shrug and said, “It just happens. You can doeverything right and still get breast cancer. Unfortunately,you drew the short straw.”

Needless to say, Kelly was not exactly thrilled with thedoctor's response, but while undergoing treatment, she meta woman with Stage 4 ovarian cancer that seemed to be atpeace and had a very positive attitude despite the oddsagainst her.

When Kelly asked the woman, she said she treated everyday as an adventure and refused to let anything make hersad, angry or worried.

“I live for the day, which is something I never did be-fore,” the woman said and admitted that she was happierwhile she was undergoing treatment than at any time in herlife.

Kelly said that shortly thereafter she found the answer to'Why me?'

“Because, bad stuff happens to everyone,” she wrote.“This is what happened to me, One of my closest friendsstruggled with infertility. That's her short straw.”

Kelly wrote how her friend's marriage fell apart. Andhow another friend gave birth to a stillborn child.

Look closely enough, she said, and you'll see that every-one has a short straw or two in their lives - the key is whatyou do when you've drawn the short straw.

My sister, who is two years younger than me, seeminglyhas drawn the short straw time and again, but you wouldnever know it by talking to her.

As a child, she was frequently rushed to the ER follow-ing numerous asthma attacks. At age 10, she had thyroidsurgery. Years later, she would have her thyroid removed aswell as her tonsils, which were causing pressure on anartery.

Then, 10 years ago, she flew from Florida to Virginia totell me the news: At age 38, she had breast cancer.

My sister has been a special ed teacher for 25 years andmost of her students are profoundly impaired and she knewthat her absence during her treatment would be difficult forher students. So, she decided to make sure that she didn’tmiss a day. During the months of chemo and radiation, shemissed only one day of school.

She eventually had a mastectomy, but nearly 10 yearssince that surgery, she’s thriving, cancer-free and stillteaching.

One of her favorite phrases is “Whatever.” Many of ushear it used these days with disdain, but my sister uses it asa positive.

“I go with the flow and when something bad happens,you just say, whatever, and continue on,” she recently toldme.

She’s the bravest person I know.Until next week, may the good news be yours.

Calhoun County East Relay for Life will be held July 18-19 at the Calhoun CountyFairgrounds. Relay is a time to celebrate survivors, caregivers and those no longerwith us. We asked these six people why they are involved in Relay for Life.

Law that helps people...Select traffic lawsBy GEORGE M. STRANDER

Ingram County Court Administrator and Probate Register

First in a series.The Michigan Vehicle Code (“MVC,”

found in Michigan Compiled Laws 257.1to 257.923) is the main set of statutes in

this state governingthe use of motor vehi-cles on Michiganroads. Since most ofus drive, this set oflaws is one of themost relevant to ourdaily lives.

Most of us thinkwe have a pretty good

handle on what traffic laws require of us.However, learning exactly what somelaws dictate may come as a surprise. Inthis series, I will review select trafficlaws with an eye to explaining crucial el-ements that readers may have forgottenor perhaps never known.

YYeellllooww lliigghhttss:: The standard trafficlight signal has, of course, a green, yel-low and red light. We all know that red

means “stop” and green means “go.” Weusually think of yellow as “caution” oreven “proceed with caution.” One thingevery driver needs to have the ability tojudge is when to proceed through an in-tersection when the light shows yellowand when to stop.

Interestingly, the default under statelaw is for a driver to stop when the lightshows yellow: If the signal exhibits asteady yellow indication, vehicular trafficfacing the signal shall stop before enter-ing the nearest crosswalk at the intersec-tion or at a limit line when marked, but ifthe stop cannot be made in safety, a vehi-cle may be driven cautiously through theintersection. [MCL 257.612(1)(b)]

The law does not say that the driver isin the right as long as he or she enters theintersection under a yellow light, whichmany of us may naturally believe or havebeen told. Rather, the statutory directiongiven a yellow light is to stop, unlessstopping would be unsafe (supposedlybecause you are too close to the intersec-tion and traveling at too great a relativespeed to bring your vehicle to a safestop).

GGrreeeenn lliigghhttss:: A green light doesmean “go,” but with a slight caveat. Asthe MVC indicates, vehicles proceedingunder a green light, “including vehiclesturning right or left, shall yield the right-of-way to other vehicles and to pedestri-ans and bicyclists lawfully within the in-tersection or an adjacent crosswalk at thetime the signal is exhibited.” [MCL257.612(1)(a)]

Obviously, motorists with a green lightshould yield to, say, emergency vehicles.Additionally, a motorist entering an inter-section under a green light to make a leftturn should wait until oncoming traffic isclear. However, as the Michigan Court ofAppeals has made clear in its unpub-lished opinion, Short v. Suburban Mobil-ity, a motorist will not be held negligentif making a left turn even if an oncomingmotorist ends up colliding with him orher on the assumption the oncoming mo-torist was speeding and he or she wouldhave been able to make the turn withoutcollision if the oncoming motorist hadnot been speeding.
