Nope, this question is waaay too hard for me. I give up.

Maybe you could give us an easier clue, Jessica?

Can you guess which Survey Central member I am?

I have a stuffed toy - he's about a meter tall, brown, has a face slightly resembling Goofy, and a big pot belly - and he's called Bilbo Baggins * smile *
He used to belong to my Grandma, who named him.

The question of why bad things happen is a popular one. My attempt at an answer would go something like this: The first man, Adam, represented the entire human race. When he sinned (rebelled against God, by disobeying His clear Word of instruction) he told God in essence that he wanted life without God. He (and thus we) wanted autonomy—to be independent of God.
So humankind sinned, and God, being a righteous God, had to judge that rebellion - which, ultimately, leads to death. Because humankind bought that judgment on itself, it's humankinds fault that death, suffering and evil are rampant in this world.

So, being descendants of Adam, and being part of the human race, we have to live with disease, sickness, and death. Why some people are blind and others are not, why some people get cancer and others do not, I don't know. But we can't pick and choose how sickness may affect us, or who is affected by what.

If Jesus cured the blind, why didn't he just cure blindness?
39Without stress, my life would be empty.

40Of course! I thought of you while this survey was awaiting qualification, and knew what you would put * smile * Without (...fill...the...blank...), my life would be empty.
