I have no idea what it would be like to be in those shoes and pray I'm never in the position to find out. I live life assuming I'm either getting around 90ish years (3 of my 4 grandparents made it that long and the one who didn't was a longtime smoker who still made 80ish) or I'm going to die quick (car accident, whatever) and then it won't matter. And I know that's all made up - there's no way to know the hour. But it's the assumption that helps me sleep at night.

I have seen some videos about "scan day" and the mentality that goes into that sort of quarter-to-quarter living and I don't know what I'd do. Anyone in this thread is a stronger one to deal with it than anything I've done. Thoughts and prayers are with you and it's heartening to see the good news.
