Weird... But cool

I saw my death video. I was brought back to life three times with serious medical complecations at age 6. Medically I wasn't suppose to be here. They got 2 of the three revivings on tape. So I watched it for the first time sense the day.WOW!. I now realize that I'm here for a reason I have yet to now. I can walk a little taller knowing that I cheated death 3 times. Not many people can say that. I feel really good. That video did something to me. I seem to be in the right time at the right place when people need me that are "close" to me. FREAKY! AIN'T IT!

That is freaky, What happened? I mean an accident or disease?

I had Pneumonia when I was born, spent my first couple months in an incubater with a tube stuck in my head. I wasn't supposed to make it either. They gave me my last rights, so when I die for real, I figure I get to take the express lane through the pearly gates.

Well I was rushed to the hospital at age 6. I had (SP) strep throat type A, scarlet fever, chicken pox, numerous internal infections and my shunt was giving problems, oh ya and a fever of 104* was no help. I spent 28 days in the hospital. BUT servived. Ya the EXPRESS lane sounds cool. The strange thing is the older I get days, weeks, years the more I realize I have something that 99.9996% of the people in this world don't. A FORTH CHANCE! and I'm here for a reason. How will I find out the reason is beyond me. I like to help people so maybe I was ment to work in a hospital to save that one persons life. Then on to the express lane. When I was born I was told I would never get out of a wheel chair and be a vegtable. Well I walk with a limp but hold my own well. So Defying those odds.But oddly I'm not religous.
People that come in contact with me say that I have a friendly warm caring ora so Maybe...........Naaaaaaaaaa

Hey Dustin...that's a wild story. Personally, I think we're all here for a reason, I just think we may not find out what it is while we're here. You can get pretty deep thinking about stuff like this, and in the end it's what makes you the most comfortable since none of us alive will ever know what was intended for us until that one day.

Don't dwell on it. For all you know, being here is the very reason. Making someone smile, laugh, think...all of that is a gift in and of itself. I mean, you don't have to be a priest, a trauma nurse, a surgeon or a teacher or something...it's almost like the saying, quality not quantity. Good luck with everything brother...you'll know soon enough, but don't rush to get there.

That is a very cool story man, kind of neat, in a weird sort of way, that you got to watch yourself get revived like that as a kid too.
