    I would seek alternative treatment. There are many cases where people survived despite an expiration date. I think the trick is to keep trying, keep positive, don't give up (doctors aren't always right), enjoy your life day by day, and if it were me and I were well enough, I'd travel the whole world.

    I think this is the ultimate time to start living. I would just start living. Try to reach my goal and dreams still.

    I would seek another opinion from other specialist. We can never know what happens next, I may die later than 6 mos and have many more years to live or I might die even before reaching 6 months, life is always uncertain, but we live in the security to know who holds what lies ahead. All I have to do is to live each day as if it were my last and make sure that I give good love to people who loves me as much. Have a good life! God bless! smile

    Not pay him for a start. Run up quite a few debts repairing my family's house, put my affairs in order, say my goodbyes, and go out with a bottle of top shelf bourbon in my belly.

    I see this as a fortunate situation, because many don't know when they will die. It is time to celebrate you presence with all your loved ones.
    Make sure the will is done right. Settle all your debts. Where possible enjoy everything you have. Need not worry much about cholesterol or weight issues too much. Write to everybody and tell them how much you love them.

    And when you die you can continue enjoying on the other side with all those who went before you. That can be a great re-union. God, our creator will also participate in this wonderful re-union. You can have all you unanswered questions answered. You will not be in pain anymore. There won't be any more bills. No more lies or deception or sickness. There is more to enjoy on this side. Everybody there loves you.
