It is ok to feel whatever you are feeling. You get to say whatyou intend to do about the matter that is your healthcare.Either this is the final chapter or it’s the next chapter of yourlife. Either way, you get to influence how it goes. Byron Katiesays, “there are three buckets of business, yours, God's andtheirs.” Theirs is the Oncology Team. Let God be God and yourmedical team be the medical team. This frees you up to befully with yourself. Now, let's focus on what you are going todo with you?

Your life matters, your wishes, hopes and dreams. Your storyis worth telling. What footprint will you leave? You arecreating a legacy every day with the expression that is yourlife. Who came before you? Who will come behind you? Whatmatters to you? Who matters to you? What can you tell themabout your life experience? What light can you shed toresolve their darkness? What impact or mark will yourprecious life leave on this family, community, town, state,country, or world? What is your life for? Why are you here?The miracle of life landed in you. Why do you believe youwere chosen to walk it out?
Life is a marathon. We run as far as we can and then thetorch is to be passed on. We are either running, passing it onor waiting to receive the torch. What path are you blazing?Who passed the torch to you? Who will you be passing thetorch to?
