  • The guy who just died gave his final lecture at some college said it best. Live every day to the fullest. I say do the BEST YOU CAN. If I only had 6 months, I'd make sure ALL business was in order so the wife would not have to stress over how things are done, I'd travel a bit, I'd live the BEST I could for the time I had trying to be and do all I ever wanted to knowing I'd not be able to finish. BUT trying is living. Instead of adding more dreams to my life, add more life to those dreams.

  • I was just watching that...Randy Pausch Last Lecture- Achieving Your Childhood Dreams... this is what I was thinking of...what would you do?

  • The initial shock would have to wear off and then I'd choose to not fight it but change it. I have seen how diagnosis can change!

  • i agree

  • dragonfly50th said it. Love what you have and forget the world. Enjoy your children, document your time and ensure that you are not forgotten.

  • r u wearing pants b/c i can swear i saw ur butt in the mirror........?

  • I would go and suicide bomb the muslims and see how they like it!!

  • stupid question! it remains theory until it's real! you have no idea how you would react if one you diagnosed!

  • I wouldn't tell anyone until the last month so I could just try to emit happiness and joy for some months,then I would ask for forgiveness for all my transgressions and have a happy send out so noone will be sad when I go. I think it would be a better way to go than an early and sudden mishap.Too many things left unsaid,too many people to thank.

  • I would start to explore this world. Drop everything that is unessential and time consuming. I'd take my kids with me. I'd video journal it so that my children would have those moments with them always. I'd focus only on the positive. The negative has no place in that short of a timeline. Heck, come to think of it, I should do this now. Who knows when my ticket will be plucked from my hands and rendered complete, used and non-refundable.

  • Very thought provoking. Randy Pausch's situation moved me and a hug number of people.  Despite spending quite some time thnking about it, I still don't know what I'd really do. I'd love to make a positive difference on the world and leave a mark, but I'd also want to be selfish and spend time with my friends family and loved ones. A real message for living each day to the max, either way you look at it...
