Passing under the Shadow of Death
I had a terrifying experience yesterday coming home from a nice Sunday drive and lunch at King Vineyards outside Charlottesville. Beginning the drive on 64 up Afton Mountain I was passing an 18 wheeler when I began to pass out while driving. I had a persistent cough that just got away from me and I started fading out. Jeni was very alarmed but I could do nothing. The one thing I did was took my foot off the gas. I was able to recover and missed the big rig by millimeters!
I was able to pull over and make sure I was ok before we started home. Syncope runs in my family with my Dad and older sister. The only time I ever experienced anything similar was with family game night some 16 years ago when I laughed so hard I totally Blacked out for 5 or 6 seconds. IT led me to say I would not mind if I died laughing since it was so painless. But a high speed wreck on a highway with my beloved wife of 41 years beside me is something to cause fear in anyone.
So it's off to see my doctor today and make sure I check out healthy.
That was the scariest moment of my life yesterday! I am so glad to be alive and unharmed and for this I thank God and God alone!
