Ladies and Gents

Post by Gixxer »

for my recent "disjointed" acts/posts as it was put with good intentions to me and i thank that person. i guess i will shed some light.

i have been lying to you and to myself about my health. it is worse than let on to be. i start tomorrow in a battle for my life. i have waited this long even after being warned several times of the consequences of it is killing me. i have waited because in a way i have always thought i could beat anything that i came up against. i always thought after a few "you shouldn't have lived through that" moments that maybe i was invincible and could shake it off. i also maybe didn't want to think i was sick because i feel good, look good and can outdo kids half my age. as the doc put it, "you usually do feel good, ... right before you drop dead."

i now fight a foe greater than myself, as much as i hate to admit it, and two nights ago an episode late at night lying in bed with my wife let me know the urgency and that I am human and i had better let the Docs do their work or sooner or later i will lose.

tomorrow i button some things up and head to the hospital for what will be the determining of my and my family's future and my life. i will let you know when it is over with for those who care and for myself as it will mean i have fought and won another battle. a battle that i now realize has a couple year head start and is the most important battle i will ever fight.

Downhill, i will now truthfully answer your earlier question of what i am afraid of.

I am afraid of dying.
