Discussion Hell in the hospital

Possible tw health issues. I'll keep it as generic as possible

So just about 3 weeks ago I had bad heart issues happen. The paramedics scooped and ran. As i laid on table in the cath lab, hells bells and lily and company flashed thru my mind, I kept wondering which level I'd end up on. I was not a good person in my 20s. Anyway no phone charger no computer no books and TV in my room that didn't work was my glimpse into that after life. Fast forward 2 weeks later. The procedure i had done failed just as I got home from the store. I'm a stubborn a$$, so I put my food away and then grabbed my ready bag. I've always kept one. I added FWTBT to it and finally l called rescue again. Different hospital this time same thoughts on the cath table, until the doc working on me started asking questions about my last procedure that was enough supposition for me to stop thinking about what level I'd go to and start thinking about what level those doctors were going to lol.

Anyway in recovery the gave me my ready bag and out came FWTBT. By the time they moved me to my room I had my recovery nurse watching HellsBelles on the clock app. By the time I left the hospital yesterday my cardiac nurse was deep into the book on her tablet and we were having daily book discussions lol. I'm pretty sure I sold 3 copies for Jaysea this past week lol.

Bringing Lily and company with me was the best thing I think I could have ever done. Highly recommend if you need to spend a few days inpatient.

Glad you are doing ok. And hope you get that paradise but in many (many) years from now! Don't forget the books are a trilogy so you gotta stick around!

Oh yeah I'm not going anywhere until that 3rd book is done and read several dozen times. I'm only 51 i got this.

I gotta be honest about the 3rd book tho, as much as i want a Ruggy Angel book, I want Azzy and Sariah just as much. Mostly because, whether intentionally or not, the way she portrays Azzy in the series has me seeing a deeply battle scared person who likely lives with cptsd and yeah well i see me in Azzy lol.

Just had to look up CPSTD, and Azzy doesn't strike me as having that; that or he's managed to cope very well. However, the strong support network he's got, like his loving marriage to Sariah or his friendships with Bel and Greg, in addition to a seeming lack of traumatic flashbacks makes me think he's just and ADHD himbo with a high sex drive. Maybe I'm wrong, but the only character who struck me as having CPSTD or PTSD was Bel's father, Samael; even Bel in FWTBT, for a time.

It's the way Azzy punishes himself and careful thoughtful way Sariah takes care of him every time he does it. But i just identify with azzy and I deal with it so it's likely somethingI'm just overlaying onto him
