I have found, over the past couple of weeks, that it is far easier than it has been in over thirty years (since my mid-twenties) to SEE/HEAR/FEEL the world I believe it might be a good exercise to write a letter to yourself announcing that you have Cancer or some other fatal illness and have only a short time left to live. Resolve to live 'as if' it were real for that period of time. It's also interesting how suddenly I became what for me is bold; i.e. I began calling my Doctor by his first name. I'm trying to express my appreciation for the opportunity this diagnosis has given me and, once again, I ask if there is anyone who can give me knowledge, support, technical advice... I want to use this time. And, Kenton, I am going to copy this to the 'contact' section and would greatly appreciate anything you have to say.
