“One must simply take the days of their lives as they happen. If you spend time worrying over what is to come, which may or may not happen, then you will only be wasting precious days you will wish in the future you could have cherished a bit longer” – R.J Gonzales

I have always believed that if you don’t live life to your fullest, then you might lose the opportunity to live the most beautiful times of your life.  The time you have in this life is precious and you never know when it will be taken away from you.

I have heard many say they want to live and grow until they’re old but all I want to do is live life the most I can while I have the chance.

People, family, Doctors  have said that the disease I have will go away, that I just have to be strong and that everything will be fine, that they will a find a cure to my ‘medical enigma’ as everyone calls it. The doctors say they have everything under control, but someone’s life is not under a doctor’s control, but under Gods will.

One of the things I’ve wanted to do since I was diagnosed with… Well I just want to learn to love someone and live the rest of my life with them. I know my life won’t be too long, but I want to live the last few years with him, to let him know he meant the world to me when I had the chance.

I just could not leave, Skylee Tyler, being a no one in this world. I wanted to be somebody for me and not for my disease, not because I was the poor girl who lived in a long forgot city and died of a disease that no one ever found what it was. I won’t be someone who died, waiting for death to come take her away from the world.

Instead I wanted to be Skylee Tyler the girl with the strange disease, who fought to live and lived her life to the fullest. I want to be known for fighting for myself, I want to fight in this life to learn and live things any other human will live in 84 years I will try to live it in 19 or 20.

That’s how my dream came true, how all I wanted to do… All I want to do happened in a blink of an eye.  Just one look, one word it took to see life from a different point of view. To see that, maybe I wasn’t going to die alone, without learning how to love.
