The doctor who diagnosed me told me that the outlook was not positive, and that I likely only had six months to live. I sought a second opinion, and that doctor confirmed the initial prognosis. After the initial shock, I decided that I was not going to allow myself to live in misery for the final months of my life.
So I told my friends and loved ones, and began selling things and giving things away. I spent money like it was going out of style, I said ‘yes’ to all of the fun things that I’d never allowed myself to do. And I prepared myself.
I was ready. But after that six month ‘deadline’ passed, my condition remained much the same. Three years later and I’m still here, as healthy as it’s possible to be with my condition, managing my disease just fine.
Dear Jane, I was told by doctors that I only had six months to live - three years later, I'm still alive but my life feels lik.
