2015年对这位住在美国密西根州的老奶奶Norma来说,可以说是人生最低潮的一年。她不仅失去老公,更被医师告知她的子宫内长了颗恶性肿瘤,俗称子宫癌。然而,当医生询问她要以开刀、放射性治疗或是化疗来切除肿瘤时,Norma却有了不一样的想法:「我今年都90岁了,我想来趟精彩的旅行!」

2015 started off horribly for Norma, a ninety-year-old Grandma from northern Michigan. Over the course of one week, she lost her husband of 67 years and also received news that she had a cancerous mass in her uterus. But when her doctors offered her the option of surgery, radiation, and chemo, Norma had other ideas. "I'm ninety years old. I'm hitting the road," she told her doctors.   Norma's medical team completely understood the reasoning behind Norma's decision. "As doctors, we see what cancer treatment looks like everyday. ICU, nursing homes, awful side effects and honestly, there is no guarantee she will survive the initial surgery to remove the mass," one of her doctors said. "You are doing exactly what I would do in the same situation. Have a great trip!" he told her.
 
没想到Norma的想法获得了医生的支持:「身为医生,我看过太多的癌症病患,老实说我无法保证动手术能够完全移除子宫内的肿瘤。事实上,如果我是妳的话,我也会选择出去旅行!祝妳一路顺风!」

 

于是,Norma和她的家人开着露营车、开始一连串为期6个月的旅行!出发前,她还在脸书上开了粉丝专页Driving Miss Norma,一边玩乐一边和大家分享旅途的点点滴滴呢!

Suffering loss has given Norma some perfect perspective. "Keep praying every day and God will take care of you, even when it feels like you can’t care for yourself." Her best advice is to talk about the happier times. "Storytelling is really, really helpful," she said.

 

这趟旅行不只带给Norma无数快乐回忆,也让她对生命有了不一样的体悟。她透露远离病痛的秘诀,就是与他人分享自己的精彩故事和幸福时光。

"Just keep on going every day, that’s about it," she advises. According to her Facebook page, she aspires to go to the moon. And what little we now know about Norma, there's nothing stopping her.  Via Facebook & Goodnewsnetwork
 
「还有,每一天都要认真的过生活,就这样了。」Norma说。
