I'm with you...
I have found from sad experience that being informed of an incurable disease usually programs most people to degenerate much faster than they would otherwise have done. Same for low percentage chance curable diseases.

I'm familiar with the thought processes and the way the body responds to such. I've been given three fatal diagnoses over the last 30 years, two were false diagnoses. The one that was not, well I was given 6 years and that was 20 years ago. I attribute this to the first two false ones through which I learned that you can't allow some 'fatal' diagnosis hold your mind or you will start to shut down your own self-recovery systems.

We only have what time we have and use it the best you can.
