I'm 41 and have what I'm told is a fatal disease. If I listened to "they" then I only have a couple more years. I have never listened to "they." I'm cool with death be it from what ails me or something totally unrelated. I've done what I wanted to do and will keep doing it 'till I can't. It's good that family expects it even if I don't. It will be easier on them IF they outlive me. A blaze of glory? Who knows.
