I just realized from the way I worded that previous blog post, it may have seemed like I had made an attempt to end my own life. But that was not the case. I became very ill from food poisoning which eventually developed into a severe case of appendicitis and I had to undergo emergency surgery. Appendicitis is scary because it can be fatal, and most certainly would have been in my case, if it wasn’t for my father realizing something wasn’t right and that it was much more serious than food poisoning. I just want to make this clear, because I do not suffer from depression or anything like that and I don’t want to belittle anyone’s struggles. I have tremendous respect for anyone who deals with those issues on a day to day basis. It must be incredibly difficult, and my one instance of trauma cannot compare to what people go through daily. Still, this was a significant moment for me that made me realize just how fragile life can be. Please everyone, stay healthy and happy. I wish you all the best ♥️
