WOW! blooming hell buddy glad your still with us

Death is a Horrible thing im only 17 and this year 2 of my closest friends have passed away. Only last weekend i lost another good friend of mine in a car accident . It pops out when you least expect it and tears people apart. Im just so happy that you managed to get through all this even with a cool story to go with it and come out the other side.

yeah , spot on

they call this blocked artery "The Widow Maker"

serious!!!

very few people have ever survived it

You should put your heart & soul into everything you do.

Yes - our ambo probably isn't talking about coronary infarct (which is what you had) but motor vehicle accident victims who arrested due to trauma.

Any way, life changing for you Matt and thankfully stents and the like can give another chance at life. My time as a nasho in the Asian games of the sities taught me that life and death is very randomly selected event. Either the number is up or its not.

Wow....that's one hell of a story there Matt.

Let Marley crash in a sobbing heap when she needs to and she'll then be strong for you both........just like always

Stop Licking the Dog...I Don't Care Who Started It

no signs Gaf,,, but i was told a few years earlier that i had the same "sticky Blood" (clotting) blood disorder problem that my mum died from. so it wasn`t like i didn`t expect it, just didn`t expect it so soon

& for Watto,,, sorry the phone cut out the other day mate, a heap more people have asked the question now too--> what was it like when i died???



Marly said that i had suddenly stopped hanging onto her hand & my hand dropped away from hers & my eyeballs then rolled up & back into my head ... she said she heard & watched the machine go flat line & then all the people went frantic & obviously that was the time,,,

but what i experienced was i floated above the hospital bed, watching all this stuff happening, i watched as this big lady jumped ontop of me & started the CPR & i even described to Marly "in-detail" what i saw as i floated above, being drawn towards this bright light above me... she couldn`t believe it because i was dead & the whole time i was there i had my eyes closed buckled up in pain anyways so i had no idea of the lay-out of the hospital room anyways so i couldn`t have possibly known the position of everything, the colour of the clothes people were wearing, especially couldn`t have known where Marly walked to & where she sat down & what she did "specifically" After i died,,, but i told her all what actually did happen

No there was no tunnel,,, but there was a bright light above, sort of pinky swirl to it that i was drawn towards,,, & it was VERY VERY relaxing,,, i found myself absolutely & totally at ease & was floating upwards towards that light, flashing back to the view of the room below on a couple of occasions,,, then suddenly i awoke with Marly looking at me & i said, """What the F#@K happened just then?... i just died diddn`t i???"""

Marly was all teary & said "Yeah Please don`t do that again"



pretty wild hey?

( shakes head several times ) Your a very lucky lad Matt , very lucky , as I said its not over till the fat lady swims and she cheated

I,m only out of hospital myself ( two weeks ) , third incident of something very nasty since 99 , it certainly puts a new perspective on life when your told you have a time bomb inside you and if it all goes very wrong you have only 15 minutes to live and that there is nothing they can do to stop it

You take care now

I like to think we run a bit better than that, I'm about 9 from 10 on VF arrests!

Out of hospital arrests, though, you're bloody lucky to get away with a few fractured ribs. My personal best is three ribs and a sternum, though we got her back!

Good luck with your recovery, Matt.

hee hee,,, that`s what i did Jacob & i reckon that`s what`s brought me back

i`m yet to drive it to it`s full potential yet so God has let me come back to do just that

Dude, this is Effin weird,

I had bizarre dreams last night, you were dribbling some $hit in them a fair bit, & driving your buggy... then I hit the forums & you've posted against an old post of mine...

Strange-o

cheers,

Jacob

HI Matt, i hope ya on the mend as i would hate for anyone to lose there warranty on parts, lol.
on a serious note you are one lucky man as i lost a mate of mine 2 years ago, his eyes rolled back and was dead before he hit the floor, this happened while he was talking to a paramedic and he tried to resuss him and i attended his funeral a few days later.

Keep well and get strong mate and just remember your walking a path very few have and walked and lived to talk about it. Its a massive warning that your now getting the help you required.

Hope to catch up soon.
all of us on this side
Jai
