The sudden death of my mother last year of a massive heart attack. Within an hour, she'd had a heart attack, stopped breathing, I did CPR, EMS came and worked on her, we went to the hospital where they worked on her, she was pronounced dead, I went in with her for a bit, and was home telling my daughter -- all within an hour. I lost my housemate, my best friend and my mother.
Not looking for sympathy, just saying it was the most dramatic event I hope to ever experience. It was shocking and traumatic.
desmond: Road Rage...........................I man on a motorcycle one night pulled up behind my car at a light and started shoot into the back of my car filling the car with bullets the first shot hit me in the shoulder.

jodigirlsfree: Hi riya yes they were long...but the after effects..the mental and emotional aspects were much longer to heal than the physical.....
I learned I can overcome anything, do anything be anything I choose if I put my mind to it...and that works for everyone....BTW i think you are pretty cool yourself
