PromoGuy's Monday Mission 2.45

***UPDATE: Tackback is on! ***

Welcome back everyone, can you believe it is Monday already? I hope this week's Mission starts your week off right - think of it as coffee for your brain. And be sure to tell your friends, we always need more Missionaries!

Just a few things to cover before we begin. First off, if you have not joined the Monday Mission mailing list, please do so. The sign-up form is on the main page in the upper left sidebar. And if you join, you will get the super-secret "e-mail only" Monday Mission Question Number Zero. Shhh, don't tell!

And this is purely a vanity thing, but I really want to move up in the BlogRolling top 100. So if you have an account there, please Blogroll Me. Share the love!

Hmm, that about covers it Oh yeah, if you are a first timer, be sure and say so - we'll go easy on ya! So since it's gettin' hot in here......

PromoGuy's Monday Mission 2.45

1. Although I was told before hand by my mother, my Grandfather finally told me he has cancer and it was speculated he has about 12 months to live. Has someone you know ever told you they had a terminal illness? What was it like for you when you found out. How did that change your relationship with them?

2. The concept of having 12 months comes as somewhat of a shock. Often those estimates are wrong and a person lives much longer. But still, it makes me think. If you found out you had 12 months to live, what would you do with that time? How would it change the way you live? Or would it?

3. My Grandfather has decided to undergo chemotherapy. He was told it would not cure him, but it could prolong his life, however his quality of life could diminish. Having watched my father go through all that to no avail, I am not so sure I would choose that option. If you were (or are) in a situation where chemotherapy might cure you, or might not, would endure the usual side effects and discomfort?

4. How is your health? How are you doing?

5. Speaking of health, I was in a Health Food Store Saturday and learned about something called "Ear Candling." It
involves having a helper insert a cone-shaped candle in your ear, lighting it and having the reverse pressure suck the wax out of your ear. Apparently it is very popular. Do you use, or have you ever tried, any alternative heath remedies or procedures? How did that work out? Anything out there we should try (or avoid)?

6. Which reminds me, this week at work they are giving flu shots for $15. I hate getting shots, so getting one by choice, and paying for it, is tough for me. How do you feel about Flu shots. Do they give them where you live? Are you going to get one or take your chances?

7. I'd like to see either "Spirited Away" or "Bowling for Columbine" before they vanish from the multiplex at the mall. But I will probably have to go see it alone (which I hate). Do you like to go to see flicks at the movie theater alone? Or would you rather have company? Seen any good (or bad) movies lately?

BONUS: Don't you want somebody to love?
