Somebody should tell us, right at the start of our lives that we are dying. Then we might live life to the limit, every minute of every day. Do it! I say. Whatever you want to do, do it now! There are only so many tomorrows. - Pope Paul VI Dr. Neil Cabe served as a teacher, a pastor, and a clinical counselor for over thirty years. Much of his work involved children, but he often worked with those who were dying, and with those who were left behind. Through it all, there was nothing to give to those who were dying, written by those who were dying. Now he is the one who is dying. Diagnosed with congestive heart failure in 2004, at the age of 57, Dr. Neil Cabe was told by his physicians that he could expect to live two to five years. How does one face such a diagnosis? How does one deal with such a potentially foreshortened future? What really has each life meant? His research into the disease predicted an 85% mortality rate for conditions such as his within five years. Yet, as 2010 crept into 2011, he is still here, still happy, still functioning though often with difficulty. What has made the difference? He believes that his view of life and living has made all the difference. In the pages of The Art of Dying Well: Living in the Moment, Dr. Cabe teaches all of us how to live our lives to their fullest, and to appreciate the preciousness of every single passing moment.
