It’s flat out astonishing how easy it is to die at any moment.

I tripped and fell against a dog enclosure. Thought nothing of it. An hour later began having lower abdominal pain like something hit my nuts. Minutes later that pain became more intense than I could bear and realized something wasn’t right. Went to the emergency room nearly out of my mind in pain. Couldn’t finish the paperwork and began throwing up in their waste can. Don’t remember much after that as I passed out.

Turned out that simple tumble, perforated my left kidney. I was bleeding out internally. I was in the ICU for a week.

I’m so thankful six years thence, I’m able to post this.
