A Moment
“How bad is it?” I asked Abigail.
“Bad enough,” she said. “With chemo, radiation, and surgery,
I’d have about a 15% chance of surviving two years.”
I winced.
To my surprise, Abigail smiled.
“It’s not so bad. At this very moment, I’m not in any pain, my
vision is clear, I can eat solid food.”
She took a sip of tea and added, “Oh, and I have bladder AND
bowel control. I do, at least for this very moment.”
The way she said it made me smile.
“At this very moment,” I muttered, thinking I’d save myself
a lot of worry and sadness by focusing on the moment.
Today I will live in the moment.
