My mum and I would wonder when I would get my...fuck off to Disneyland moment.
Your cancer needed to be terminal.
But we never really know. And it will come back, without doubt. So we realised, we don't get to cash in and fuck off to the life long dream.
Mine is not and never has been Disneyland. But it seemed the most popular choice.
Today, as I watched the clouds over lake Malawi and let the wind cover me in a smooth coolness on the boat that took us from island to island, and as I looked at my new friends and beautiful little family, I realised, I've done it!
I've had my 'life is too short' escape.
Malawi is my Disneyland.
2019 will have some surgery in it but I'm determined not to let it spoil this escape.
