Control what you can control.

Other than that, death is part of the journey.

When I was a child, I was terrified of dying in my sleep. So, my child brain came up with a plan. If I ever finished a book before bed, I would immediately start another one because I couldn't die with an incomplete book to be read.

I’ve been smelling the roses for 20 years. Traveling the world fishing all over the world, I’m ready when fate is…… In the meantime cmon spring basing at camp at T Bend.

Yes.

Death is just a part of life, something we are all destined to do.

Yes please God..and especially their mother.

I lost my husband, then Covid happened, and life was pretty much suspended for a few years. Last summer I had a health scare. It was a false alarm , but it made me resolve to not die with money in the bank. Ive booked a 3 + week trip to Africa for later this year, bought several new cameras and lenses, gone to Yellowstone and the Tetons, then the Everglades , and home to Louisiana for Christmas, all since August. (That doesn’t count new tires, work on the car, new flooring, etc)

My plan is coming along nicely. In fact, I may run out of $$$ sooner rather than later….hahahaha…..

live it. money and memories arent going with you when you die so enjoy it while you can.

Yep….The older one gets, the shorter the window is for active travel. Besides safari vehicles, I am doing bushwalks (with a guide). And staying in tents. One of these days I will need the"luxury safari" or a cruise somewhere (never done a cruise)..Then, maybe rocking chair on the porch and reliving my memories! I totally lost a couple of years between crippling grief and Covid quarantine, so i am revving up the bucket list checkoffs.

I wish you the best outcome, maybe a miracle will happen.

We all know we are going to die, but a diagnosis such as yours has to pull one up short.

Death doesn’t scare me as much as what I would miss if it came too soon.

This is my view on it. It crushes me to even think about my wife and kids being sad and having to go through me no longer being here. And not being able to go through life with them.
