Chronic Illness Diaries: Acute Pulmonary Embolism

Friday, March 8, 2024, early evening will forever be burned into my mind. It is the day that I came so very close to death. 

Right in my bathroom, I began feeling extremely ill, dizzy to the point of blacking out, and extremely short of breath. At that moment, I found out late that I experienced an acute Pulmonary Embolism. Probably the scariest medical emergency that I have ever experienced to date.

Because of that event, I have a newfound heart of gratitude. I am grateful to be here even on the days that I feel my worst because I was so close to not being here. I am grateful for every up and down; every good and bad day; every ache and pain. I am most grateful for those who surround me in love, friendship, and support​.
