To hell and back...

Not sure if any of you noticed, but I hadnt posted prior to today for over a week. I have been in the hospital. This whole thing started a few weeks ago when I suddenly noticed I was having shortness of breath. I went to the doctor, he said I had bronchitis, and sent me on my merry way. A week later my condition hadnt improved, a chest X-ray was done, and it was concluded that I had a pnumeothorax(collapsed lung) I went to the hospital, they put a tube in my chest, the air was released, and I was sent home 2 days later. Fine and dandy until the same thing happened again a week later. This time they did surgery, cut off the bad portion of my lung and stapled in back together. I finally got home today, cant do much for 2 weeks, cant even drive. They dont know how it happened, they say a lot of times things like this happen to someone in a car accident or something, but they can also happen out of nowhere. Let me just say none of us have any idea how lucky we are just to be healthy.
