Well, I got diagnosed with epilepsy last year. While not exactly life-threatening, it did give me quite a scare (having a tonic-clonic seizure in the middle of a board-meeting !!) and made my “reprioritise” my life.
Family (particularly my brand-new marriage) have become all the more important to me. You only get one chance at a life on this earth (while until proven otherwise). Seeing and doing things you wouldn’t normally go and see and do. For instance, on our honeymoon we went up in a DH Fox-Moth. My wife absolutely loved it (to my amazement and joy).
I love going onto this forum and learning more and more about classic aviation from people who are not a lot different from me (despite living 1000’s of kms away).
I try to contribute where I can and comment on posts I particularily like.
THe support people here give is great and even little things like wishing you a happy birthday makes you feel really good to know that the forum crowd does care.
All I can say is “we’re here for a good time, not a long time”
My NZ$00.02 worth…
