I knew that I may or may not live to see the dawn.
My cancer diagnosis was less of a facedown with own mortality. I knew it would take time. It might be a week or years, but the heart attack was right damn now...it had the potential of ending very quickly.
Read all you want...some of us have lived it.
Okay, I didn't know about this.......... I am sorry you went through this and sincerely hope everything gets better.
As you can see, the point of the thread is not to belittle anybody's hardships, it's certainly not to pretend that theists are the "tougher" people. I apologize again if my topic is misinterpreted, it's at best of theoretical interest.
Thank you. I am five years out from the heart attack and nearly 13 from the cancer diagnosis. But I am 65 - something's gonna get me one of these days.
But you can't say that no one thinks of their death as being a real thing. Some of us do and have....for whatever reason.
I'm your huckleberry.
