I flat lined for 6 and a half minutes

Introducing myself here on Steemit after joining and reading this platform for a few hours.

On March 6 th of this year I was admitted to the hospital as I was coughing up blood and my stomach was aching for like four days. I thought I had food poisoning but later found out my liver and kidneys were failing.

My surgeon was at the foot if my bed discussing the fact that if I did not have surgery asap I might not live for another day when suddenly I flat lined. After six and a half minutes of cpr they were about to pronounce me deceased when a faint pulse appeared out of nowhere.

I was rushed into emergency heart surgery even though I was given a 1 in 1000 chance to survive much less be normal again as there was a large tumor on my heart that had to be removed.

I am thankful to be alive today and able to continue my research of crypto currencies, civic duty, wealth traning, Las Vegas, sugar babies....

Hoping to travel the USA as there is still much I have not seen .

Did you experience anything in those 6 and a half minutes?

No. I have no memory of it. After the surgery I was in a medically induced coma for fourteen days. The first night after being woke up and having the life support removed I felt a presence in the room after all the nurses left. It felt like a guardian angel just making sure I planning to fight to fully recover. As of today I am still not pain free .

Thx for your reply.

Welcome to the community!

That's quite an introduction. You beat the odds for sure. I hope the pain goes away soon. Hopefully hanging around here will take your mind off it, a little. Best wishes!
