Life is Stranger Than Fiction
9 years ago
So hi hi all! As those who know me well enough know, I'm not a fan of bringing drama about or even talking about it. But I had it happen to me so it kinda tossed me off whack for a good long while and made me lay low until I sorted it all. I tend to be a private person, yet also outgoing at times with others, nice paradox. To those curious folks, it went down like this.
In the beginning of January I was reunited with my biological father whom I hadn't seen in a long long while... oh say about 26 years. Yeah yeah, longer than some of you are alive. Don't ask my age. Rude to ask cats their age. So I started on the long road to repair things from the past and relearn about each other after so long. It was sort of both our faults we fell apart like that and decided it is better to try and rebuild things anew then just go our separate ways.
That seemed all good until he gave me the news he had a really bad genetic disorder with his heart that almost killed him a decade or so back. Yikes. So I may have it too. Cue up months of setting things up and hearing about how, if I have it, I'll definitely need open heart surgery with a decent percentage chance of kinda snuffing me out on the operating table. After months of visiting docs and the third best cardiac clinic in the USA (my dad worked in the medical field, go figure... oh, and if you take Claritin for allergies... you're welcome, he helped make it) it turns out I didn't inherit that genetic defect from him. So... big relief. No cashing out early. Woot!
Sometimes life really is stranger than fiction as I can't imagine someone thinking something like this nonsense up. So much for trying to live a drama free life. I'll be seeing you all soon as I pull myself back up into sorts again. Good to hear from those that say hi and I'll be in touch with the lot of you whom I need to be in touch with ASAP.

Good luck.
I...think that about sums up my thoughts here. *nodnods* Prrrrf! =O.O=
Still, glad to know you're still prrfin' around. *hughugs* ^^;;;
You ain't gettin' rid of me that easily. Heh heh.
Glad to see you again, Wyld. :D
When you have the time, email me so we can catch up on things ok? I owe you some explanation.
I'm glad you're back and doing well. Note me when you have time ^_^
Anyway, glad to hear that everything worked out, despite what all happened. Here's hoping that we see more of you again in the near future. =3
Please stay strong.
Yeah, my family has a history of alcoholism so thankfully I somehow avoided getting that gene. xD well, among other traits and genetics we get (or don't).
But glad to hear things are all good for you.
So it happened because of a Good Thing, and the potential Bad Thing doesn't apply to you! Awesome, wish more stories went like that!
and you need a Cye glomp after that drama so..
GLOMP
Still, I hope all other aspects of your life are going well too. :3 Not that there is any rush for you to get back into the community since you need to take care of you before anything, but I hope we will be able to chat again soon, I miss that. :3 Though just knowing you're alright is enough. :3
good to hear that your coming back, I have definitely missed you (and have been rather worried about you to)
cant wait to see what comes next from ya!
Stay strong, and definitely happy to hear you were able to reunite with your father in good spirits.
