“I suppose those of us between zero and ninety-three are blessed in our own way as well. We are here, swirling in a jumble of the inconsequential and consequential. We’ve enjoyed some of the world’s beauty and reserve the potential to experience more. Some of us will have longer than others, but perhaps we should focus on savoring rather than quantitating it. Even if it’s only one more year.

That’s life. I have it on good authority that you can’t get through it without a little pain.

In the meantime, let us remember that it’s never too late to chase dreams.”

Hailey Amick is an anesthesiologist who blogs at Facing Monsters.

She shares her story and discusses her KevinMD article, “Anesthesia touches nearly every area of medicine.”
