The Gift of Time

Time is another tricky aspect when it comes to a chronic illness diagnosis like MDS. As people having a new layer of uncertainty into our lives, we are likely to worry about time and it's finite nature. However, this acknowledgement of time being finite does not need to be a burden.

The gift of time involves trying to find gratitude and appreciation for the time we have spent and are spending. Connecting with loved ones and making use of the time we have can instill feelings of gratitude and appreciation. 

How can you share the gift of time today? Consider calling a loved one to tell them that their support matters, write a letter to appreciate a friend, or if you are able to, plan an activity with them. Share your reflections on how you can appreciate and share your time in the box below.
