No matter how much or how little time we have on this planet, it is up to every one of us to live each day to the fullest extent we can.
The following tips have helped other people:
- Work on focusing on what you do have, rather than what you lost.
- Balance expectation and hope. As Wendy Harpham, a doctor and several time cancer survivor said: "Expectation is a state of mind; hope is a state of heart."
- If you are up to it, take that trip you always wanted to take. It is fairly easy these days to travel with a disabling condition provided you prepare and take reasonableprecautions.
- Spend time with people who are important to you.
- Look for meaning in the experience.
- Make peace with people and right old wrongs.
- Say now what you want each person to know.
- Seek to make things right within your own faith.
- Forgive yourself.
