near death perspective change


Recommended Posts

Posted

recently admitted myself to the hospital with extreme abdominal pains

turned out to be something called diverticulitis, something i had never heard of before.

my particular case was a bad one: a few of the diverticuli that had formed got badly infected and burst, splitting the side of my colon open, and allowing the infection to leak into my stomach.
i was in the hospital for 12 days, but so doped up it felt like 4.5.
i have no recollection of the stories people were telling me about before and after the surgery. Doctors told me if i had waited to come in i would have died from going septic.

Looking back on it, it really put my life and the world around me into perspective. Became a more grateful person for even the smallest of things, and been trying harder to keep in touch with all my friends and family.

no real point to this thread, just think we all could use a little jolt in our lives to humble us down and adjust our perspectives.

Glad you're alright bro... That shit is nothing to play with at all... Things tend to change outlooks... Best of luck healing and what not

Glad your OK, man.

I was in the hospital in 2001 for over a month with a bad case of acute pancreatitis and it was pure hell (at least what i remember of it). Doc said if had waited any longer i would have died. I have 30% of my panc left & am now more prone to develop pancreatic cancer. Near death experiences damn sure make the little things in life stand out.

To the OP… damn that doesn't look good. Trade Brad, he wanted it. Maybe while they operate him, he can get that sex change he always wanted.

Hope your doing better man. Being sick is no joke. No laughing matter.. I too have been sick quite a bit, not really going to get into it right now. But hope you have a quick recovery dude!

To the op sucks that happened to you my mom has diverticulitis so I know how painful it can be. This thread though is full of awesome.

That being said a lot of people's definition of "music" is a clipped 30 hz sine wave with some 80 IQ knuckle head grunting about committing crimes and his genitals.

Ok listen up the NEXT person to troll in this thread will get 24 hrs vacation... I just cleaned up 4 pgs of BS and it was UNCALLED for... Diverticulitis is a serious issue and the op posted his story about how it made him see things differently... Either comment productively or DONT this is the only warning.. You guys can really be pricks sometimes and it is ridiculous... There is a time to be jackasses and THIS is not one of them .. Thanks
