Pulmonologist says I should be dead by now

Hi,
You are more than welcome.
I learnt some time ago it is better for me to treat my health problems lightly despite them being serious, as the alternative is to sit and stew over them. The best part of being a living dead person is the times I get to remind my former Dr I'm still here dead and kicking, she seems to have this permanent red sun tan to the face when we meet!
I was devastated to find out I was only mortal! I went home and closed my business then and there, made my will, settle my debts and sat and waited. I got tired of that and started to do my own research discovering it is only a death sentence if I die.
I learnt when I had a cancer scare my way of thinking is, so what, just manage what I can't change as best I can. Life is not only for the living, it is also for us living dead people of which I'm sure there are a few more out there.
Someone said to me recently tomorrow never comes, tomorrow is always tomorrow because when it becomes today, tomorrow is still tomorrow, yet to come. I guess that is why I only deal with today as tomorrow is when apparently going to be dead!
Cheers

Hi Cheyne! You are so delightful and I was doubly happy to see your second reply as it gave me even more smiles. Thank-you soooo much! I love the image of your Dr. having a "permanent red sun tan to the face" when they see you are "still here dead and kicking"! You're the funniest dead person I've ever met. Thanks for writing and, most of all, for being a blast of joy in a stressful time. All the best to you.
