Life is strange... one second you are going about your day normally... annoyed at the person that cut you off on your drive to work, complaining about how someone stole your favorite pen, and tired of the everyday routine. Then you're hit by a truck, a diagnosis that turns your entire life upside down. Suddenly the things you thought were so important don't matter anymore, and every day is about making sure that you cherish the things that are important and the people that are important.
This is when you're the most vulnerable, the most emotional, the time when you are tested the most. Can you step up to the plate? Be there for the ones that have always been there for you? Will you be able to look back and not regret? I sure hope I will...
