My very dear neighbour has months to live.
Advanced Prostate Cancer.
This has sharpened my mind quite a bit.
In realising that it could happen to me in the future am trying to live as full a life as I can - every day!
Yesterday I played 26 songs on my Uke and Banjolele which I have been playing since last Oct, in a concert with 30 other players.
I felt a great sense of elation.
There are many cliches about living later life - some too gung ho for me.
But I try to achieve something meaningful ( to me ) each day.
