my mum wasted 20 years of her life as she had severe rheumatoid arthritis and waited until she got better to do ANYTHING..are you going to wait 20 years (or more) to die and then realise all the things you could have done??
She died before she ever got 'better' but there was so many things she could have done and enjoyed instead of just sitting in her chair day in day out waiting for a day that never came. I miss her everyday but wish I had more memories of us doing things together...whether it be shopping, lunching, baking...so the moral of the story is live life to the fullest everyday doing whatever it is that you enjoy....
