What will your life be like in three years?

That’s a hard question to answer when I live with a cancer that has about a 50% mortality rate.

While it’s true that nobody knows exactly when they will die, it feels like quite a difficult topic for me. It’s something I’m working on.

I find, while my mental health is bad, making long term plans is hard. Thinking too far into the future impossible. Thinking about the future is scary because will I be sick, healthy – will I even be alive?

I’m not sure there is much point to this blog post really. But the prompt triggered me somewhat.

I think way too much about my own mortality, and that of others. I expect I’m not the only person with a life changing illness like cancer who thinks about life and death a lot.
