Paul is joined by Leah Morgan for the first of a two-pert episode which is a very poignant one. Leah shares some experiences and lessons she’s been through since tragically losing her daughter to Leukemia.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
In 2016 my daughter Maggie-Mae was born with Leukemia, it’s extremely rare to be born with Leukemia – one in five million. Every single day that Maggie had was a miracle and we only had her for 18 months, despite nearly dying so many times in those early days, so the fact she got 18 months was miraculous. She had a fun-filled, joyful life. We were sure she’d survive and have a healthy life ahead of her, but unfortunately that wasn’t the case.
Anyone who is faced with tragic or life-changing circumstances will be able to understand, but even people who haven’t experienced these things will empathise with the fact that the world just stands still and all the things we’re striving towards suddenly become meaningless. That’s really hard to understand unless you’ve been through it. I have a life before Maggie was born and a life after she was born. My life and my perspective of life is unrecognisable.
I’ve been presented with a whole new world: the beautiful cycles of nature, the joy that you see in each and every moment. Now a traffic jam isn’t a stressful thing, for me it’s a time to stop and see what’s around me, look out the window and accept that what will be will be. I’m used to surrendering my control and just accepting what life’s given me today. That really changes you.
When you’ve been faced wit death and the fact life is a finite experience that can change in a moment, and as a mother trying to keep their child alive, there’s a fearlessness I’m left with. I feel like all those layers of armour that I have built up or that society puts on us, all ego- or fear-based, are burned away and you’re left with pure vulnerability. But in that state is where the power lies.
BEST MOMENTS
‘In her short life, Maggie-Mae changed everyone she knew, all our lives have been changed unrecognisably.’
‘Maggie has taught me the real value of life.’
‘It’s really interesting when you just stop and realise how swept up in the rat race we all are.’
‘Of course, money brings opportunities, but even more important than the money is the focus on your life’s dharma – life’s purpose.’
