I would suggest that you immediately seek out a second opinion from a comprehensive cancer center as absolutely no one knows how long someone has to live. I have a 19 year old with advanced abdominal sarcoma. He has been fighting his disease for two years and has survived high dose chemotherapy and three major surgeries. He is currently undergoing an experimental trial and is asymptomatic. At your age you would still be treated by pediatrics or by an adolescent oncologist. You would qualify for both pediatric and adult clinical trials. You need to explore more options.

I am so sorry for you. You probably don't feel like doing much. I know that I would drop out of college and try to spend the time as you wish and giving pleasure to yourself. Even at my age--that would be a real shocker. I do wish you well and yes, I would do some praying. God bless.

I would make sure that I would get right with God
but I was also make sure that I got on intense
prayer request to Jesus that my health would
actually improve. I know of people that were terminal but with the right relationship with God
they were able to conquer their sickness and
actually outlive the expectations of their so called
'Doctors'. It may require a team effort to bring
about the assurance that your life can be extended.
Actually I was just listening to sermon just this
Tuesday and he preached about a man by I think the name of
'Hezekiah' who prayed to God to live longer and
God gave him 15 more years to live.
So what the doctor says doesn't always go.

My mom just passed with a diagnosis like that, she lasted just less than a month. If you feel healthy enough, I'd do everything you always wanted to do, but were afraid to try, maybe skydiving or something risky/adventurous like that. If your health won't permit those activities, then go with your heart, and do what you want to do, not what others want you to do. Be selfish and let yourself enjoy your last days.

I hope you're not joking, because that would just be wrong.
To answer the question. I would accept Jesus as my Savior so that I can be saved and get into heaven. God Bless. Any questions let me know.
I'm so sorry.
