"Maybe just that, how lucky you are, that you get to wake up every day, and it's not in chronic pain. It's not being exhausted, or having … falling asleep while you're eating. That you get to enjoy each moment," says Burcham, "Some people say, 'How do you do it?' How do you wake up every morning? And I say, 'What choice do I have?' You don't have a choice. You have to wake up each morning, but you choose how you do it - if you're going to do it happy, or if you're going to do it upset. And I choose to live my days happy, and trying to make a difference."
