As rough as today was, I keep getting increasingly younger and healthier. Sometimes I see my reflection in a window and want to say, "Who is that kid!? He looks super tough and professional!" and then realize that's me. I look like I've de-aged by many decades compared to myself in 2002.
I'm sick with the same exact thing I had last year that threatened my life, in the exact same way (bronchitis/pnemonia bacteria in my bloodstream), and it's just a mere inconvenience at this point.
Let me spell that out:
Last year I nearly died from this (sepsis via pneumonia bacteremia), and this year it's less problematic than a mosquito buzzing around to me.
I would tell you I could die happy knowing I achieved this, but I wouldn't want you all getting the wrong impression. I am very happy with my life and what I overcame so far!
