I can't think about work right now...I have been sitting at my desk for the last 3 hours, and have hardly done anything. All I can think about is the short time that I have left. What am I going to do with this time? What would you do? It's funny because when you read thoughts from other people their responses are things like, "I would travel." or..."I would max out my credit cards"...or "I would eat anything I wanted". I wonder if any of these people are actually dying. Doubt it.

Anyway, I've spent the last 2 hours reading much of a blog from an Australian women who was actually dying from bowel cancer. It offered me some real insight as to what someone else's thoughts were. Very real. Very sad. Very heart-warming, and heart-breaking. As you read, you find yourself wanting to help Jack, her 7 year old son. That is the same way I feel about Coop and Knox. I can't help them. I can't even explain to them what is happening. I suppose they are getting a life lesson in death. Is that ironic? Anyway, each of our lives is different, and I suspect that God has a plan for the two of them.

If you are interested in shedding a couple of tears, the link is below. But, I'll warn you that once you start reading, it's hard to stop.
