My mother died when I was on the verge of turning my life around. There are new developments in treating the cancer - glioblastima - than there were at the time. She was worried sick about me and knew I was on the right path, but never actually saw me succeed. I think about it a lot.
I still fully believe we need to start discussing how long we want to live. Along-side maybe getting to show my mom my fortunate outcome, Putin could be up for another 25 elections.
We shouldn’t arrive at that moment without an answer to that question.
Besides, death comes for us all. It’s the most natural thing of all. We should be less scared of it, and instead use it to understand we have a limited time we must make the most of.
- coderatlarge 2y agothank you for sharing this story and i hope the miracles in glioblastoma treatment continue to astound. i do agree that it’s fundamental to live life knowing there are no guarantees and that we must therefore make the best of every allotted bit of time. there is a famous saying about science progressing one funeral at a time because new perspectives sometimes require that the old guard step aside before they can take hold.
