After I got my diagnosis and the grim prognosis on June 3, 2008, it was just a hope and dream for me to see the Christmas of 2008. My dream was fulfilled. Then I saw fireworks in the distance from my bedroom window on New Year's Eve. I stuck around to see the Spring of 2009 and then came Summer and I was back on the river kayaking. Remarkably, I lasted through this flu season. Here it is Winter once again. And I am loving every minute of it - even the gloomy days. I am so glad to be alive. I don't know why I lasted this long, but I feel like every day is a gift.
In spite of all the bad and evil in life, I hope you are also able to focus on all the good and beautiful which still remains.
Happy Holidays and may God bless us everyone.
