Brain cancer is...
..enough of a reason to change my official policy on miracles.
I love both science and a good quotation, so I have always cherished Albert Einstein's sentiment: “There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.”
I have attempted to live a life in witness of miracles. I saw the miracle of my children's tiny newborn feet, and now I marvel at their grown manhood. I have seen the miracle of spiderwebs and of Canyon De Chelly (thanks Roene). For 53 years, I have never asked for the other kind of miracle, the kind of miracle that beats the odds. Today is the day I ask. I will take one of those one-in-a-million sorts of miracles.
