Well, if you have to crash, way to go!! I hope it is not too bad or too long. Enjoy everything else you can while it lasts.
I am so glad when I hear stories like this. It is sad that we wait till someone dies to really wake up to what is needed, but that is how it goes, I guess. My stepson died from cancer at the age of 14, and I do two things regularly to remember him. The first one, every aluminum tab I come across goes into a container at home to contribute to Ronald McDonald House here locally for its expenses. The second thing I do is also related -- almost all my pocket change goes to the same place whenever I find a collection box. I have long wanted to add a third action, that of making a gingerbread house each year to go to the Festival of Trees, a fund-raiser for the children's hospital. Hasn't happened, too much work right now.
Keep up the golfing!!
