Unfortunately the lows kind of outweighed the highs
Highs:
1. GNR reuniting which to me that's the equivalent of the Knicks winning a championship
2. Flying to Vegas to see GNR's first 2 reunion shows
3. Misfits reuniting
Lows in order from most recent:
1. Getting hit by a car despite crossing in the crosswalk with the right of way and receiving a ridiculous jaywalking ticket because I was too out of it to give an accurate recollection of what happened to the worthless cop as I laid in the ambulance on a stretcher with a neck brace. Head split open. Fortunately all ct scans were negative but now I got all the legal **** to deal with.
2. Getting rear ended by a drunk driver who then proceeded to assault me in Jersey City. Another fine example of lazy police work. Report only mentioned the accident. Nothing about the assault despite 50 eye witnesses about 20 JC & Port Authority cops on the scene. Cameras everywhere being that it happen near the Newport Path.
3. Mom suffers a heart attack 6yrs after the stoke. Spends 5months in the hospital and rehab. Doesn't take her first steps without help til month 4. Put everything into perspective for me that's for sure. She's home and doing great now. Stronger every day. Being home definitely speeds up the rehab. Gotta credit the surgeon. Just amazing I'm forever in debt to him. 2 days 13 hours of wait, agony followed by extreme fear and ending in exhilaration.
4. Father been living with prostrate cancer was suppose to have surgery to retify. Was scheduled to get further tests done to make sure the cancer didn't spread to bones and organs. I never found out what the results were. Next thing you know he went to Brazil. It's been over 3yrs and I'm afraid he's resigned to the illness. If you saw the new Rocky then you know what scene hit home for me. Doctor told him when going through the options who knows he may live another 10yrs without doing anything. My dad in his way laughed and told him 10yrs? Heck I'll take it. Unfortunately I'm starting to get the feeling he wasn't joking.
Anyway no one said life was easy. Just trying all I possibly can to make thinks right again
