Never Take Life For Granted 

Meaning, do not waste every day and every opportunity you come across as nothing.

 My papa, June 30th was supposed to drive to Salt Lake City Utah for his job. But, he didn't feel good he was really tired and weary. At 6:05 pm he had a grand-mal seizure my nana did CPR for 5 minutes before the ambulance got to my house and they had to give him 3 shots of Ativan which one is supposed to put people to sleep right? Wrong. He was combative until they put him in a medically induced coma where he stayed for 14 days. They never found a cause the worst thing they found was a small case of walking pneumonia. Which still couldn't have been the cause for the sudden seizure keep in mind he has never had one before and none of his family has either so medically there is no reason for this. The neurologist he saw 2 days ago (8/1/18) says its something in his brain for sure. But, they don't know what the real cause is. He can't walk heel to toe, say the months in an order he knows them all but not in order. The doctors have all called him an enigma. Today a month and four days later he is mentally stronger but physically wobbly. But, they say he will be better physically in about 3 more months so we are trying our best to keep him happy and let him do as much as he can by himself but still help when he seems upset or puzzled.

so, in other words, he could have died but he didn't he did not like to have fun but this brought out his childish spirit. He never takes a day for granted anymore.
