Diabetes Obituary

Robert Barrett (Syd) passed away this week. I remember listening to early Pink Floyd a lot when I was 16, around the time I was diagnosed with Diabetes. I didn't understand either of them (diabetes or Pink Floyd) very well at the time, but they spoke to me on 'another level.' I still love songs like Arnold Layne and Bike and See Emily Play, even "Careful with that Axe Eugene." I think I understand them both a little better. Both sad stories, at times.
