*hugs cool m* I'm glad to hear that he's feeling better, what a depressing time of year for that sort of thing to happen. I know, my sister died last year just before Thanksgiving of a heart attack.

Oterys *hugs cool m* I'm glad to hear that he's feeling better, what a depressing time of year for that sort of thing to happen. I know, my sister died last year just before Thanksgiving of a heart attack. that is one way to see it, but i think of it as good that his life was saved. i do not see anything as bad, i just see things as tests and blessings. in this case, i think it was both. also i am sorry to hear about your sister.

Thanks, m, but I actually see her passing as a form of a blessing as well. She was in pain, physically and spiritually, and now I believe she is not so much so. I think it was terribly sad, but I was happy for her too. So it's good to be able to see the blessings.
I think it probably helps that you have a great attitude towards it all. Personally I try to be an optimist in these situations, which seems to help (except that I come from a family of pessimists).

Indeed, but it's no simple trick at times, so you are to be commended.

Good, you hear so many bad things, it's good to hear some positive news every now and again. Personally I think that your positive attitude probably had a lot to do with his recovery. Faith is a wonderful thing.

cool m thanks for the compliment. Don't mention it. My faith is really rather ambiguous at the moment, so I admire people who can still manage not to be daunted by the harsher aspects of life.

i just feel that everyone has the ability to control how they feel when it comes to emotions.

I suppose, but I find that that tends to make me tired. I've spent years trying to control my emotions and now I'm like bleh. But I still do my best to be as nice as possible.

Good, at least he has a positive prognosis, though it'll be tough on everyone, at least he wont be there long.
