A Day of Reflection.....Grateful To Be Alive!
A Day of Reflection.....Grateful To Be Alive! When you are faced with a life-threatening condition, you have 2 options: You can give up and surrender or you can fight with every fibre of your being. One year ago, for the second time in just over a decade, I chose the latter. When laying in Emergency, I came ‘this close’ towards crossing over but knew I wasn’t ready. Later, when I was having tests and scans done, a technician said, ‘You must have a guardian angel looking out for you. Not many people survive what you have. But I know you will be OK’. I knew exactly what he meant and those words will resonate forever. Every day was and is a journey. There was a battery of tests and consultations until a comprehensive diagnosis was made and treatment plan outlined. After 6 days, I was sent home, knowing more challenges were ahead and new milestones to reach. I was afraid to go to sleep at night, in case I didn’t wake up. I would say out loud, ‘Please let me wake up tomorrow. I am not ready to leave.’ Now, I am less patient. I don’t ‘sweat the small stuff’. I cringe when I hear or read people whining about what I perceive be trivial stuff. Most of the time, I shake ‘my’ head incredulously, bite ‘my’ tongue and hold back from commenting. I have battled back. I am a long way from where I was a year ago. Not yet a hundred percent but so much closer. Recently the Doctor remarked once again, I am here today because I am a strong, determined and resilient woman. I don’t usually share such personal information about myself. I decided to do so to remind everyone, not to take anything for granted. Live and appreciate each day of your life, the best you can, as you don’t know, if there will be a tomorrow. |

Good to hear you're doing better. My 2 cents 1. Most of the time, I shake my head incredulously, bite my tongue and hold back from commenting. Don't hold back from commenting, it can release the stress of being around stupid people. 2. Remain a strong, determined and resilient woman. When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

When I had my 2nd heart attack, laying on the table as they were taking my clothes off, I couldn't think of anything I had left to accomplish. I felt calm and ready to go if it was my time. The morphine may have had something to do with that.
