美國一個九十歲老婦，在診斷出末期癌症之後，放棄化療，選擇用更積極的方式，度過人生最後一段日子，她一路玩到掛。
家住密西根的鮑爾史密特老太太，去年七月喪偶，兩天後，被診斷出罹患末期癌症，開車遊走四方已經好幾年的兒子媳婦得到消息，立刻回家陪伴老母，媳婦問婆婆要不要跟他們一起旅行，老太太只考慮了一分鐘就答應，她展開了人生的畢業旅行，三人開著露營車，玩了34個州，總計行駛兩萬多公里，看遍美景，認識了許多精彩的人，老太太度過人生最快樂的一段日子，上個禮拜，她含笑去世。

希望它走時不會太痛苦...人生充滿了無奈..或許這也是不得己的選擇吧..

很佩服老婆婆的樂觀態度,很少人能看這麼開的

90歲.......接受的如果不是標靶治療, 而是傳統化療, 可能會更早掛, 而且更痛苦.......

豁達樂觀的老婆婆
很佩服她的心境與正向思維

很為老婆婆高興

雖然不知道是不是真的 如果是真的 那還滿棒的 自己臨死前 可以跑到各地去玩 玩到安樂死

而不是在醫院的病床上靜靜的等死.....

網路常常有賺人眼淚的假消息。 這則新聞是有多方報導，可以相信的新聞。 很為老婆婆高興，能有決心去看世界，也有個體貼的兒子媳婦願意跟她走天涯。 很幸福的。

91-year-old who dumped chemo for road-trip adventure dies

We’re now remembering a woman from Michigan named Norma Bauerschmidt.

Norma made headlines around the world last year when she set out on an inspirational road trip. She died Friday at the age of 91. Here is her story.

Norma Jean Bauerschmidt taught us its never to late to live life to the fullest.

At 90 years old, her husband of 67 years died and she was diagnosed with uterine cancer. So she decided to hit the road and leave surgery, chemo an grief behind.

Along with her son Tim and his wife Ramie, Norma toured the counry’s most famous sites in a motor home for more than a year.

She shared her story with CBS News’ David Begnaud last spring.

“They’ve given me a new lease on life, I should say,” Norma said.

She says she “probably will” spend the rest of life living on the road.

And she did.

Did she think she’d be having this much fun at 90?

“No, no,” she answered, with a laugh.

Her final stop was San Juan Island, off the coast of Washington.

Norma’s passing was announced last night with a post to the popular Facebook page that shared her adventures with the world.

This quote from a 13th century poet said it best: “Life is a balance between holding on and letting go.”

And her family writes: “Today we are letting go.”
