Very strange....i just looked at the date November 3) and realized that my mothers death was around this time 15 years ago.

Here is the rest of the story

I had gone out to see my mother while she was in the hospital a week or two before. Then on November 3 1999 I had a major heart attack.

It had been coming on since Halloween (I told myself I had the flue).Not being able to reach my wife I called a friend to ask her to pick up my daughter at school because I was too sick

She could tell something was wrong by the sound of my voice and came over ...called the ambulance. I barely made it to the hospital in time and my heart stopped as soon as I got there.I got my near death experience and they shocked my heart back to pumping.

I was in the hospital for 2 weeks and had a bypass. I got out and was home when my mother called to say good buy.Then I managed to get up, fly to Texas, and go to the funeral a few days later.

All started on this day 15 years ago

treat yourself well today. The body carries the memories of the pains we have borne. there is a week once a year that contains the anniversaries of the deaths of four close family members. I take time off that week just to be good to myself.
