Now listen up

I have given this advice to many people over the years—because it’s simple and it’s true.

If three people who love and care for you tell to do (or not do) something, give up and do WHAT THEY TELL YOU.

“Dude, don’t ski down the black diamond trail.”
“Girlfriend, dump that guy.”
“You better get that mole looked at.”
“Don’t buy that house.”
“Another kid, are you crazy???”

And guess what, while I wobbled and vacillated and decided to give up on this diabolical cancer treatment, I realized there are THIRTY FIVE people telling me to go on. So there ya go, I gotta put my money where my mouth is.

Because the guy who was told by his wife, and his buddies and his doctor, to get that mole looked at?  He didn’t. He died at age 48.
