Greg, more than glad that that your caught it when you did.
Couple of years ago when my dad was in his late fifties and just up for retiring he just started to get a bit forgetful and the odd headache. He was fit as a fiddle but one day he took the dog for a walk and suddenly couldn't remember his way home. Luckily Muffin (mad chocolate Labrador who knew where his supper was but was equally the coolest dog ever) led the way.
Within a couple of weeks he was in a high dependency unit in Birmingham and days later the docs said it was pretty much over and we had to let him slip away.
Cut me up pretty bad as you can imagine but since then have realised a few things:
- you never know what life might throw at you
- catch it and make the most of what it gives you
- be joyful for the opportunities it passes your way
- have as few regrets as you possibly can
- live for the now because the might never happen
- most of all try not to worry about what might not happen tomorrow
I hope you all can all look today in the eye and say you've made the most of it. If not do so tomorrow!!!!
Best wishes,
Dom
