Some time ago, I took my Dad to get treatment.
While there I decided to also do a routine test and check up, that was smart because it was discovered that I was at the early stages of what would have become terminal in a few years or months.
So I started treatment too, and thankfully at early stages it is 100 percent curable and treatable.
However these days with a lot of time on my hands "resting", I have been imagining what my obituary would have been like.
Have I been a good employee or boss?
Have I been a good wife ( with all my small small trouble and mouth pushing"
My boys are young but would they have had fond memories of me?
I am mostly a very pratical and driven person, however, what I have learned from this is that family is first, when you are lying In bed sometimes too weak to do anything for yourself if you have a good family you are very lucky.
Also it is good to be prepared. Calmly prepare your mind for eventualities but pray and hope everything works out well.
It is very important to know what is going on in your body. I had few symptoms but I overlooked them, if I hadn't used the opportunity to check hmmm.
Most times we ignore our body, we can service our cars, mend our clothes but we ignore our body.
Rest and relax, life is not perfect, no one has it all, but enjoy the good parts you have, that's what keeps you going in days like this.
Okay so no pity parties oh, am fine, will soon be back to work self, I just felt like sharing a little today.
Enjoy life, be HAPPY, don't live to fulfil anyones obligations, because for me when the reality of death came, I looked back and was happy for some of my life choices even though it was against popular opinions then.
Don't face death a bitter person filled with "What ifs"
Happy living everybody.
