In a Moment #3

in a moment 3

On November 29th, after Mike’s massive seizure, I was told to ‘prepare for his death.’ He was not going to make it.

Despite this, and to the doctor’s surprise, Mike did a comeback. His exact words after he came off life support were: “Hello darling, I’m back.”

And in typical Mike fashion, he had a HUGE grin on his face.

The AHA moment was the knowing that you can die at any moment.

Up until that point, we rationally knew it but not emotionally. There is a difference.

And when we knew it emotionally, we realized that all we had guaranteed was this moment. And if we were lucky the next moment and the next.

So all we had to live in was this moment.

That AHA changed the way we used the moments!

Let’s say, we had LOTS of happy moments the following year, before Mike passed.
