A senior 19 year old girl named, Lauren Hill has loved basketball all her life. She played it all through high school and never gave up. During her senior year she found out she was diagnosed with a brain tumor. During her senior year of high school she was going to play basketball at the University Of Mount Saint Joseph. Her doctors said she did not have much more time to live. Lauren was hoping she would get to play basketball at Mount Saint Joseph before her time came. When she found that out she asked if the university could bring up the game to 2 weeks than it was supposed to be to November 2nd. She could dominate and win against her first game against Hiram College. They said yes and she was going to wear her number from high school which was Number 22. She now has till December to live, the doctors have told her. She is so lucky she got to play with her teammates for the first time. Lauren had a quote that she will always live by which is. "I never gave up for a second even when I got a terminal diagnosis; never thought about sitting back and not living life anymore."
How would you feel if your doctors told you that you did not have much more time to live? What would you do?

Great topic and well done!
If I had two months to live I would do crazy things that I wouldn't have the opportunity to do later.
Idk how I'd feel because it's never happened to me or anyone I know. I think I would be really depressed about it but i don't know. If I only had so long to live I'd live life to the fullest. I'd try to do everything I never got to do.
id do all the things i haven't done before id spend time with the people i love and doing the things i love. i would make every minute of my last minutes the best of all. i would do the things i would want to remember and be happy on my deathbed
I know I would try to live out as much as I could. I would try to make these last days some of the best days of my life. Even though I would be sad and angered that this happened to me, I know I would try to make the best of.
Yes you should always try make the best out of things.
I would feel depressed and hysteric. Once I've come to terms with it, I'd do everything I'd ever wanted to do, but never had the courage or time.
I would live like i was dying and go out blaze of glory and do what ever i could do
i would just do what i love to do the most and just live my life. I would travel a lot more and do more crazy things
agrred!
