Please correct my mistakes As i always say, The Deer Abby stories have been my inspiration and you can say that I am kind of addicted to them . The story for today is about a mother who has given up on life . she stated the following " I have had cancer for 12 years. This will be my last year" . It is sad that she has to suffer from cancer and the long, painful ,devastating treatment . I know that she must have been mentally exhausted . But in my opinion she should never give up on life . People only have one chance of life and they should live it to its fullest . Who knows she might wake up tomorrow and finds herself completely healed up . I find her to be a selfish mother because she wants her daughter who is about to get marry to support her idea and accept her death There is no kids in their right mind will accept the idea of their parents death . people only deal with it after it happens . No one will wish for it . I am not denying her the right to think about death . all sick people think of death all the time (in my opinion ) . But she should hold on to life and think in a postive way specially that there is a big event coming soon , which is her daughter wedding . I am not trying to be the judge here. she must've been through hell to start making her death plans
