I have started writing this post several times. But, I could not finish it. And today may not be different. But, I'll try.
When we were told about Wiley's tumor, our minds raced. Would he survive? Would he be blind? Would he . . . ? Fill in the blanks. We had the question.
The research shows an average life expectancy of 10 years - on average. That means some live longer than 10 years. Unfortunately, some don't live as long. This weekend we lost another young one. It brings back the reality of mortality. You forget that this is a fight for life. So often, I get so focused on the fight for a "normal" life and fail to be thankful we get to be in that battle. Too many have lost the fight for life.
If Wiley lives the average, we have 6 more years. What would you or I do different if you knew when the last day was? Why am i not doing it?
