Greetings friends and sorry for not being around.
Apparently I "disappeared off the face of the earth" and wanted to let those who care and showed much love and light that I had a close call and brush (once again) with the man with the Sickle...
I was out in the yard and was stung by a wasp. I went into shock, stopped breathing and heart stopped and wound up swollen and blue from an allergic reaction as well as oxygen deprivation.
After several days in the cardiac ICU, I had to stay for more tests and antibiotics as well as the usual crap of IV's and getting lots of rest (yeah right - like anyone can rest when they are taking temperatures and blood pressure at 4 AM).
Now I have to carry around a new sting kit since my old one was expired and didn't do squat. It's a real scary experience when the world goes dark and cold on a person and what I do remember was not all that pleasant. All the buzzers and bells, feeling of being shocked several times and turning wonderful hues from the bruises of cpr and paddles is no fun.
Just a warning to any and all - if you are allergic to stinging insects - PLEASE - get an epi kit and keep it on you at all times and make sure of the expiration date.
I am ever so thankful that my neighbor witnessed the incident and called 911 immediately - or else I might not still be here and well... let's just not go there.
Glad to be back and thanks for all the love. Wishing all a belated Happy Paddy's Day and Brightest Blessings for a beautiful Spring, Blessed Ostara and Happy Easter!
Much Love and Light!
