Getting a Glimpse of Your Own Funeral: Reflections from a Recipient of a Medical GoFundMe Campaign

I was just diagnosed with brain cancer; I haven’t even started treatment yet. A week ago a friend finally convinced my husband and I to allow her to set up a GoFundMe page for us. Just a couple of days into it I woke up early — before the kids were up and wrote down these thoughts. I shared them the next day and it seems they resonated with a lot of people. I wanted to share them here, in case they touched you as well.
