Twelve Months of Life
Twelve Months of Life
Life is something that sometimes we do not value, but it is the most beautiful thing we have, live every day, open our eyes and enjoy a new day with the people we love, enjoy what we like to do, but knowing that you only have twelve months to live must not be easy, it would be a case of depression with the first news, without thinking about it I would enter into a sea of tears, I would cry every day, it is not easy to know that.
Writing this post I can't help but go back to when my mother was diagnosed with cancer, she had to decide whether to have surgery or not, but she decided not to have surgery and I knew she had little time left to live, and she also knew the same, I cried almost every night, I prayed hoping for a miracle and I did not stop crying without anyone noticing, but my suffering was noticeable because I lost a lot of weight.
It was not me clearly, but I think that I would have felt the same in depression because the first mental shock that one can have and the worst thing is that it must be a serious illness, maybe I could spend a few months like that.
The mind is very powerful and I have always thought that maybe one can keep the balance, and thinking about the months I have left I would like to write a book or some sheets for my children advice, thoughts, things that I would like to tell them in so many moments of their life and that I could not be with them in those moments, advise us according to experience, encourage them in moments of sadness and that every time they read my writings they could be comforted.
While I do that I would like to create moments in their memories spending quality moments with them, because family is important it can be a trip, be more times together, talk a lot with them, make recipes together, play some game, share in any way, go to the countryside, the beach any place I can be with them, the important thing is to spend these last days with them.
Of course I wouldn't suffocate them because we all have to have space, and I can't be with them all the time because they have to do their own things and it's better that they don't get used to having me so much by their side because when I'm not around I would be very much needed.
That's why I always say that we must make people feel that we love them all the time because we don't know how long they can be with us, every moment is important, I'm glad to know that all this is an assumption in this great weekend initiative.
I enjoyed writing this new weekend's post, I thank friend @galenkp for these excellent topics, which is now on its week #169.

It will definitely be a sad moment knowing that one has few more time to live.
If it's an aged person, it's still understandable but telling a young person that is not cool at all, very difficult to admit.
If it is true I think that a young person is very difficult, although it is hard whatever the circumstance.
Beautiful reflexion. Sorry about your mom. It was a brave decision of hers.
Nothing like living life like it will be over any time.
Thank you for your words, if we have to live each day as if it were the last, we do not know what destiny has in store for us, I hope it will be a long life. Thanks for stopping by and reading.
