UNDERGOING REWRITE
Dying from cancer isn't the worst part. The worst part is that you stop living before you're even dead.
I am dying. There's no changing that. No reversing it. It is simply a fact. I have less than a year to live, I have accepted that. What I haven't accepted is spending my last few months curled up on a hospital bed. I am going to live.
I am going to live before I die.
