Running through my memories - I love that. Note. Sarcasm.
Ovarian cancer
Bells palsy
Coccygectomy
Brain injury
Again, a particularly stressful few years before my brain injury [see Ovarian cancer?? pass the wine...now!] - thinking about not to take life for granted - so I am using the words of others - but getting the idea across...
Here is an excerpt from Steve Jobs’s 2005 commencement speech that
mentions his philosophy of living each day as if it were his last.
A hard thing to get ones head around.
Try. I survived.
Twice.
Because every moment in life is valuable - so don't let it be taken away - hold on to life - with rage.
Cognitive reserve...

"Life is full of surprises. You’ll never know for certain what your future will look like. You’ll never know where you end up or what you’ll accomplish in the next few years. You’ll never know who you will befriend, what you will experience, how you will feel…
If you only had 24 hours to live, you wouldn’t ever think about laying on your bed all day eating Doritos, watching mindless content on YouTube or scrolling through Instagram all day.
You’d realize how much time you’d spent on things you never cared about which made you feel good in the present, but would never amount to anything in the future.
We’d love a little more time to finally be able to say the honest truth; things you would never have thought of sharing about yourself without the thought of your impending death.
You won’t take your time for granted and would only pay attention to the things that are most important to you. You have no time to waste, because your life can end any minute."
