Hi, I'm still here

I don’t know why, I don’t know how.
Just reading my hospital’s notes.
It seems I was dead and they brought me back.
I remember, telling my buddy on Aug 16, “I don’t feel good”, I remember throwing up blood. I remember the ambulances coming.
I also remember the “ dreams”. And I’m home now.
As I read my electronic portal, I died twice, Full Code
Long story short, I puked, crapped, all my my blood out.
I was dead. The Doctors , the Nurses, the Techs, saved me.
Just wanted to let you all know, im ok. LilBit is ok
Im gonna sign off with just,
Im just LilBits Dad.
Im still here

I'm glad you survived and relieved for the update. A Widower or widow has an elevated risk for the first 365 after loosing their spouse. Take care Kozer for evermore but especially this first year.

One day at a time, each day stronger than the next. My dad used to tell me, "Don't forget. The darkest hour is just before dawn." May you and LilBits enjoy many more happy days together.
