Suddenly you realize life is precious
No, it's not Samara from The Ring, this is yours truly. Woke up with this, got a shock, and booked in for a doctor immediately. All of a sudden I went paranoid and started thinking of What Ifs.
What if it was a transient stroke, after all I had this dull headache the day before. Am at the age where getting a stroke is possible. I think there was a little dull pain here and there. Could it be? Was this feeling there before? What will happen to my family if something happened to me? How will I take care of Aidan? NO! I can't get sick! I have to stay well for my family, if not for myself! Aidan is just a child, he needs me.
All these negative thoughts have been consuming me all day. The doctor and optometrist said it was nothing to worry about. It was just a small rupture from the blood vessel and a warm compression may help relief some discomfort, but there isn't any pain at all. All of a sudden it dawned upon me that being healthy is so important, for myself, and for everyone who loves me.
Aidan saw it, and he went Pain pain, blood.
Yes Aidan, Mummy has to go see a doctor later.
See doctor. Where's my 'chau-chau'? (His cloth nappy now used as a large hanky)
In your room, on your bed.
He ran to get it, and came back into my room, and tried to use it to dab away the blood. To say I was touched was not even close. Warmth and love engulfed my heart. I have to stay well, for the two boys in my life.
