Just had Quadruple By-pass heart surgery in mid April.
Was having a heart attack at 3 AM one morning.
Woke up and felt like someone was BBQing a goat inside my chest.
Told my wife we gotta go to the ER NOW!.
Luckily it’s only a 3 minute drive to the hospital, or I would have died..............
*** “Woke up and felt like someone was BBQing a goat inside my chest” ***
I have died twice (the following is just Me a dumbsshit)
By-Pass ... Never had that (very descriptive Goat example and plan to do my best avoid it)
As for me
I Do Not fear Death ... I fear Dying (especially the Pain)
The Pain I have endured (My Back and my Ribs) has always been almost 100% non Life Threatening unless I couldn’t figure out a way to sleep which eventually will kill you (wishing Death upon yourself isn’t all that Glamorous nor is it very effective).
I have Not experienced a Real Life Threatening Disease (just bad Accidents and the associated Trauma and pain that I have begged not to Survive from)
Heart Attacks must really Suck, But now at 65 I will (sell my Motorcycle) probably start to have more Old Folks frailties and my prognosis will not be good because “I welcome Death”, I have been there, twice. Again I do not fear Death, I fear the Dying part.
I have been preparing for years but I figure I have to do it right this time.
(PS When I died I didn’t hear a single Harp nor any Organ playing any Church Music either time, just the sound of “Light” which is basically a gazillion voices (that don’t actually speak) that I understood 100% but cannot remember anything told to me, nor can I describe in any accurate way, you’ll know it when ya experience it, besides when ya get there (We all do) it is a 2 way conversation, I do remember that
(PS PS Time does not exist at all, if you had a 5 Billion year conversation with the “Light”, it wouldn’t even be a flash)
OK that is really all I remember ... Not a single bit of it was Drug induced, I either flushed or threw away all that crap the Hospital gave me (both times) as It made me stupid when I took it and I still had to work (Insurance Co must have loved me)
Don’t do anything stupid (like dying)
Remember ... STUPID is My Department!
I’m the Dumbshit in this conversation and it now it appears that I am also Off BBQ Goat, cause it hurts me now ...
(Also please tell them ER Gals how much you appreciate them)
