"Still Alive"

And I distinctly remember my wife coming to join me in bed.  She was also still there when I woke up this morning.  That's only remarkable because she sometimes has to leave.  I think she's gotten used to the times when I stop breathing for a minute or two, but it seems that when I start again, its quite raspy and noisy.

It occurs to me that if the lack of breathing no longer wakes her up, then if I die in bed she ain't gonna know it til the morning cause I'll be so quiet.  And somehow I'm good with that.  I don't want my death to cause anyone to lose a nights sleep.

And while we're on this topic, and as a first step in the promised changes Sally has motivated in me, I have decided to donate my body to medical research.  Next week I will fill out the documentation to send my corpse to the University of Western Ontario, if they still want it when the time comes.

I have also decided to donate some members of Sally's family to medical research, but they should go now!!!

And lastly for today, in response to HOJ's comment yesterday.... touché!

  1. Ha, that last comment makes me think you've had to deal with some crap from certain people lately... hope it hasn't been too annoying.

    Also, I like your decision to donate your body to medical research. I've always been inclined to do that as well - if I'm gonna be dead, might as well be useful.

    Love you!
