My Mom was recently told that she has breast cancer. she has lived her life eating what she wanted. She has chosen not to seek treatment, She just turned 90...
My sister-in-law has spent her life eating vegie style and not eating any sweets or doing anything that could in any way endanger her health. She is 60 and was diagnosed with skin cancer and has just finished a year long course of chemo after surgery. So, I agree. Live life with all the enjoyment you can muster. Each day is a new adventure.
