Goals, intense goals, can keep a person alive when nothing else will. - David J. Schwartz

This quote was added by nick.t
Mrs. D. contracted cancer when her son was only two. Her husband died only three months before the diagnosis. But she was determined she would see her two-year-old son through college. Each time the doctors would' say, "Just a few more months." The cancer was never cured. But those "few more months" stretched into twenty years. She saw her son graduated from college. Six weeks later she was gone. A goal, a burning desire, was powerful enough to stave off sure death for two decades.
