Three months ago…

My life is not extraordinary. But I believe it is a happy one.

I have passed trough different times, some great and others just harsh. I am really thankful because there are only few tough times that I can remember.

Unless one that happened three months ago. On September, my dad suffered a heart attack. Of course it was something completely unexpected for all of us.

Immediately, my father was taken to the hospital so the doctors could try to save his life. It was really complicated because anyone of the family was certain about what was truly happening.

The doctors needed just a few more minutes to notice what my father was having. After they were quite sure, a really liable medicine was applied to him. This medicine was only given so to stop the heart attack. Of course his stay in hospital was just beginning. 

Several medical analysis were made in order to catch up how harmful the heart attack was.  Every visible symptom was taken into consideration since they had to find the exact reason that caused the heart’s failure.

Actually it turned complicated for the doctors to hit upon the precise reason of the heart attack. My father made daily exercise as a routine of his life. On meals, he avoided flesh, pork or any fatty food; therefore he maintained a good physical health.

He was at intensive care during the whole first week; at any moment another heart attack could happen.  Unfortunately during that week no relative, but my mom, was able to visit him or only pass by and say hello. My sister and I had to anxiously wait until the second week so to visit him. It was really maddening, since we had no chance to even talk to him after the problem.

Three weeks passed until he was finally discharged from hospital. Obviously he was even thinner because of the food provided by the hospital, no salt nor fat…tasteless. But we did not matter.  He returned with no mishap, getting rid of any negative situation that most of the times heart attacks leave.

My father, my mother, my sister and I were really happy because we were together again. No one thought that literally in just a minute, everyone’s life would change that much. Now we are even closer to each other, noticing how fortunate we are …everyone alive, happy about it, and enjoying every single moment.
