Panic Attack!

Tweet

Ok, so I received a call from a creditor telling me I owed them $25,000. My jaw hit the floor and I was in complete shoock. I cleared up this confusion and directed them to the actual debtor. But after about five minutes, I started to experience a sharp pain in my chest. This pain was so unbareable, next I realised I could barely breathe. Before I knew it I was doubled up in complete fear and pain. I thought I was dying from a heart attack. Lucky for me my family had come home early from work that day when they seen me grasping at my chest. Next thing I know they rushed me to the Hospital. And they threw all the heart monitors and all of the heavy wiring on me. Now I am only thirty years old and though I am over weight, I do not have a history of heart diesease in my family. But as I laid there the pain heavy in my chest, I stared up at this big stainless steal overhead light. I felt like I was drifting away beyond all control. For so long now I had been breaking myself down for all the things that I have done wrong. And I had been looking at the things I didn't have. Needless to say the last two years of my life have been far from ideal. But as I laid there the pain swelled and everything had become so real. My parents had often told me that if I didn't stop worry about everything that I would die of a heart attack before my time. And I honestly thought that was what was now happening to me. Lucky for me I had a wonderful staff at the emergency room. Which in this day in age is a blessing unto itself. But there where several times that the nurses came rushing in because now my heart was realxing to much. So they would talk to me. It all suddenly clicked, right then and there that none of these little things matter. And I learned that every day is special, we always hear it but never do we live by it. So the question is have you ever had a single moment change your life?
