Well, we are just about 12 hours away....
In just about 12 hours I will be exactly 1 year out form the start of my heart attack.
It is a bit surreal to be honest with you.


I am excited, I get to celebrate.
I am amazed that it has been a year, but I can't believe how long ago it feels....to be a little cliché....it feels like a lifetime ago.


I am also excited because, tomorrow,  I get to talk face to face to some of the folks that helped save my life a year ago. I have not spoken to or seen them since that day. That is so cool. It feels a little like an early Christmas Eve.


Now, Ashley? She has a different view of things.
She is afraid she may not sleep tonight.


Ashley is anxious because tomorrow IS the anniversary of "the event." She is worried frankly that tomorrow will be cursed and that I will have a relapse; that she will be back in the ER to 'celebrate'.


I guess we won't know who is right till tomorrow night. I think that uncertainty is kind of why I am so excited. Tomorrow is either going to be epic, terrible, or it is going to pass like any other day. Six billion people will not notice tomorrow being any different than the day before. For me, for Ashley, tomorrow will be a day to remember.....hopefully we will remember it as a plain old Tuesday.


Thanks to everyone who has been reading this blog & to those of you who have been there for me every step of the way.


Good night & God bless.
