houstongirl22 ~ That's not an answer! How will your consistently snotty responses to questions change your life?

You're only 22 years old ~ will your mouth get bigger with age?

Will sleeping become more difficult for you as you continue to treat people like crap, and realize that you still have to sleep in your own skin?

When the time comes for you to reap all of the bad karma which you have sown, will any of your victims be able to help you, even if they want to?

C'mon, give some more snotty answers ~ I'm not the one losing sleep, but thanks for bringing it up!

On the 17th of Feb I walked into a hospital and fell down with a heart attack, when I woke up I was stable in the emergency room, the doctor said he was going to run some test in the morning. The next morning I was feeling much better and they took me down and did a ultra sound on my heart and said it looked fine, then they took me over to do a stress test. I could not walk on the treadmill cause I just had back surgery about 4 week ago so they did the test chemicaly through my veins, it was to take about 4 min to do. About 3 1/2 min into the test I felt very weird on my left side and was then told I was having a full blown stroke. I was then rushed up to the ICU floor by the stroke team and I was not feeling so good, aparently I was in critical condition. Mind you a week before this I also found out I had a bleeding ulcer in my stomach. Anyway the doctors did some MRI's and CAT Scans on me and could not find where the blood clot was that was causing my stroke and they also could not get a hold of my wife. About an hour and a half went by and I was more coherant so the doctor told me that I might die if they could not get the blood flow back in to my brain, so then he told me their was a new drug called TPA that might find the clot and dissolve it but that I would only have a 2% chance of living through it because of my ulcer and bleeding in the brain, there was only a 3 hour window to be abel to use this medicine and 2 hrs have already passed. I decided a long time ago I was never going to be a burden to no one including my wife so I told the doctor to give me the TPA, and he did. I went into a coma for about 3 to 4 hrs but I did wake up and saw my lovely wife Lisa crying beside me, I told everything would be ok, she smiled a little. About six hours had passed with no improvement until I looked down at my left toes and saw they were moving, talk about the best feeling you ever had in your life...so an hour later I was moving my fingers then my arm then my leg and I stayed up for the next 24hrs just moving my left side. The doctors said my face lifted back into place, no more droop. By Sat the 20th I was on my was home still a little weak but with a clean bill of health. I am taking this week off and the doctors said I get to go back to work next Monday and I feel great. I have decided to take life by the horns and do everything I always wanted to, I just signed up for a Tai Kuan Do class.

Last year my mother died. I am an only child and she had been ill for a long time.

I had been a full time career for her for the last few years.

She died in my arms at home.

There was nothing I could do.

When someone has died in your arms, and you have watched their eyes as they realise that they are going to die, and both of you know there is nothing either can do, and the one dying cant speak....it changes you.

The day I found Jesus .Prior to that time I was a gutter crawling whoremonger who lived from one bottle of Crown Royal to another. October 31 1980 I made a complete horses behind out of my self at my childrens Halloween festival.woke up the next morning on a sheet of plastic at the foot of our bed .the Door was open and my 4 year old daughter was standing there staring at me with the most hollow look one could imagine. I got up to shower and for the first time in 15 years looked at my self in the mirror as I raised my first mornings drink to my lips. it was at that moment I realised What a fool I was. I cried out to the God of my Wife . decided from that moment on no more booze my family would come first and I would find the God that made my wife still love me.
Today I am a minister for the Church in Dilley Texas .
I thank God daily for his Salvation in His son Jesus.

My family was extremely well off when I was 12.
Our house burned down to the ground with nothing salvaged when I was 13.
My stepfather took off with all of the insurance money and left my Mom and I destitute. We ended up in a one-room apartment on the floor with the clothes I was wearing that night.

Fairly altering, wouldn't you say?
