2018 is now pretty much the end of my reading life. I can neither see or concentrate enough to get through books in a way I can enjoy them. To save the frustration I am now listening.
I'm very slowly making my way through my BC books only. Anything I've bought has been gifted.
My wishlist is now just for my own reference.

I have end stage Pulmonary Fibrosis along with many autoimmune diseases so
I am happy for each day. It is what it is and it will never get better so I've had to do a big change in attitude. I choose to be happy.
I can't walk anymore but I have a cool old electric wheelchair. I can put a hole in a wall faster than you can blink! lol
I feel calmer and more centered then I ever have. Strange but good.
You know how they ask what you'd do if you knew your time was limited? Well, you probably wouldn't change a thing. It costs so much to be terminally ill there is little left over for much else. Enjoy every minute you can. There are no do overs.
Go do whatever "it" is now!

MY PREACH/RANT/NAG
If you smoke STOP now! I've been told my lungs look like smokers lungs but I never smoked.
If you are overweight but otherwise healthy, or just overweight according to BMI charts PLEASE lose weight NOW. You hopefully CAN do it now.
If, God forbid, you ever need a transplant you won't get one if you are otherwise healthy but overweight. Don't wait until it might be too late to lose because of the meds you are taking.
