One day he fell and woke up being rushed into the ER. He had a broken neck and the prognosis wasn't good. He could hear all of the things being said around him about how he wasn't going to make it. One of the nurses asked out of habit, before he was rushed into surgery, if he was allergic to anything, not expecting an answer. He said, "Yeah," and everyone froze not expecting him to be able to talk. They just stared down at him and he said "I'm allergic to heights." They all laughed and felt some relief that he might just be okay.<BR/><BR/>He, just like you, went on to recover despite the fact that he could have easily been killed. Keep up the recovery and live every day to its fullest knowing it could be your last.Trey Carlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01674675073430521873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35076473.post-1159834117772531492006-10-02T19:08:00.000-05:002006-10-02T19:08:00.000-05:00Just a quick Q&A I heard today that I thought was ...Just a quick Q&A I heard today that I thought was relevant to my current situation: Q:Why do we fall?

It has already changed me in positive ways. There were alot of things in life that I was taking for granted that my current condition has illuminated for me. Unfortunately, I had to be taken to the edge of life to open my eyes. I say unfortunately because I am sorry for the stress it put on my family. I am not scared of death but I am afraid of not truly living. I pray that for the rest of my life I learn everyday to be more compassionate,find truth and enjoy every moment left.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15529256582135895737noreply@blogger.com
