Hello lovely blog friends,
You may have noticed my long absence in the blogosphere. A couple of weeks ago I wasn't feeling well. I didn't think too much of it. I went to bed with an Ibuprofen and hoped I would sleep it off, whatever it was. However, around midnight I woke up with chest pains, shortness of breath and I felt feverish. Those who have been following me for a while know that I despise hospitals and I usually avoid those places like the plague, but a niggling voice in the back of my head told me to call an ambulance...which promptly whisked me off to the dreaded hospital where I spent around 5 hours hooked up to machines, given scans and had my bloodwork taken. They immediately pushed intravenous medications. It turns out I narrowly avoided a heart attack. A heart attack omg. Retrospectively, I'm glad I did listen to that voice in my head! I spent a week in ICU and then was transfered to a specialized hospital where I spent another two weeks. All the while I was thinking of my blog family, and hopefully you can forgive me for not responding to any of your lovely comments or checking in on your blogs. In my weakened state it was simply impossible.
I have been released home and in a week I will start rehabilitation. Frankly, this very stressful experience has left me completely exhausted. It is just going to take time to recover from this. Please bear with me. Thank you all! Take good care of yourselves ~
