Wow! Your perception to life is empowering. I think most people fear death.
Whether they have a life threatening illness or not, people want to live and not die.
Even if they are old and heathy, death still scare people. But if we can accept death as part of the phases in human cycle, we can accept whatever life threatening situation we face.
I wish more people can read your story because with a positive attitude like this no sickness can defeat us.
