rumors of my death are highly overrated

by kye on October 13, 2009

Last week I nearly lost my sister.  She was not a good candidate for surgery, in a life-threatening situation.  The hospital staff tried everything they could think of all week, to get the problem to resolve without surgery.  But it didn’t, and she was running out of time.

So, Thursday night the surgeon went ahead.  I thought ‘this is it.’

…And she pulled through.  Even fragile bodies can be incredibly strong.

This week, I have the flu.  It’s not surprising.  Lots of people here are getting it.  Even strong bodies can be incredibly fragile.

I’m seeing it as a good thing.  Bodies know when it’s time for a rest.

Back soon!

  • Great to hear your sister pulled through, Kye. Take care.... and get over your flu now :-).

    Cheers,

  • Kye, great news about your sister.

    And you get well soon too.

    As you say, even fragile bodies are incredibly resilient:-)

    Thanks, and I'm working on it :)
  • Just goes to show that we have no idea what will happen to our health, or what our real limits are due to health. We could be gone any moment, and we can surpass most obstacles.

    Glad to see you back, and glad to hear that your sister is doing better.

    Yes, exactly. And thanks!
