My life will be short. So on the days I can, I really live': 30 dying people explain what really matters
Briefly

I always thought, I'll get my career sorted, then we'll get married, have children, go travelling. And then cancer happened. You grieve for your future self. Your imagined children and your career. If I died tomorrow, what I'd be saying on my deathbed is I regret not spending enough time with my family. So that's what I focus on.
Don't waste energy fighting. Life is too short for cleaning. The laundry pile will wait. And if I want to eat a piece of cake, I damn well do.
