I can't understand how or why things happen the way they do. But what I do know now is no matter what happens, life goes on.
I was discharged from the hospital yesterday and not wanting to sound overly dramatic, still recovering from the trauma.
I went in with chest pains and during the course of those chest pains, my heart stopped. 8 seconds where my heart flat-lined and I was "gone".
When I was brought back, I looked for J. I needed to know he was close by. I needed his calm assurance that it was going to be okay.
Next, I tried to process what happened while I was gone. I know for sure that while I was struggling, life was going on for everyone around me. All across the blogging world, in countries everywhere, life was going on. The world wasn't changed by what I was experiencing but I decided that I was going to change things as a result of what I experienced.
I can't describe, what I felt. There are no words yet. I'm not even sure I'm quite up to making much sense right now. :)
But I'm here and I appreciate you all for your prayers and words of encouragement.
Thanks for being here.

Simone - I'm so glad you are here! In the realm of things I haven't known you long, but I've been so blessed by getting to know you here in blogland. It's funny how you can feel as if you are friends with someone you've never met in person, but I feel that with you.
I'm glad you are out of the hospital and will be praying for full recovery and for the Dr's to figure out what is causing these issues.
Love you!

Oh, my God, I just read your blog, 8 seconds, what a terrible thing to happen to you..praying they can find (doctors) what happened, maybe it was a big fluke, that it just happened..maybe it was just something that happened, hoping you are on the mend and that life will return to some normal soon..Lots of good thoughts sent out to you and prayers...mjs from the west coast not too far from where you are actually living!.....
Wow how scary is that....Thank goodness you still here with us only God knows why he puts us through trials but you made it. Take it easy get well soon.
So glad you are back and resting. I'm sure you have lots of questions and maybe a few answers at this time. Try to rest - let the Doctors do their work and have faith that things will turn out okay. My prayers go with you.

When I read your comment on my post, I didn't realize, that "literally" your heart stopped. Where was my mind?
That had to be scary to hear that you were flat-lined for 8 seconds.
PLEASE stay on the doctors for extensive testing.
And PLEASE take care of yourself.
May God bless you and your family.

It is always a difficult time when we are in stressful situations regarding our health. You take care and let us know how you are doing. Love to you and many blessings Anne
