Just home from the hospital...with more blood tests and scans and scopes to come in a few weeks: "This is going to be the best Christmas ever!" she said. "A big tree, lots of presents and music and time with friends and family. I love this season. And if it's going to be my last, it's going to be good."
A wise teacher once told me: "The mortality rate among human beings is 100%." So when cancer came calling for him this past year, he decided to live with it instead of die with it.
It's good news and bad news, huh? We already know how this is going to turn out. So why wait? Why decide to live life to the fullest only after the doctor hands you a death sentence?
