A student in Farmington has just decided to stop his chemotherapy and radiation due to the fact that after many, many years of fighting this disease of cancer, he is not going to win. On his Caring Bridge website, he wrote these words yesterday. This young man is 16.
Through dying eyes, its a new world i see.
The colors are so much brighter.
The little things grow bigger day by day
And burdens grow even lighter.
As times grow shorter, you'd think i'd grow sadder
But it makes me cherish everything more.
And with each passing day, its easier to say
Live this one like never before.
And as sadness looms, i grow in faith.
As i trust in God for safety
this situation is our of my hands.
And i know that he will guide me
At a passing glance, there's nothing to me.
but there's more than meets the eye.
I see the world in a much different view
Than the average person passing by
And i wish everyone could see
the world through the eye of a dying man
because maybe, just maybe
people would live and see the world like i can.

He is a very brave young man that many of us could take a lesson from.
