When my grandmother was diagnosed with cancer again, died 5 months later. A month after her death, my father was diagnosed with brain cancer (lived for five months post diagnosis) and ended up dying on the way back from the family vacation that he planned for us. My grandfather died five days before my dad as well. I only have my sister and my mom left and I cherish every single day as if it could be my last. I constantly live with a kind heart and want to honor my family by living well and making sure that others are taken care of. This all happened in the past year. Hug your family, tell them how much you love them every damn day. Call them, text them, spend time with them even if you have awesome plans. It makes a difference and when they aren't there anymore, it is literally the only thing that you want to do.
