I already know of a couple occasions where I was close to dying. Once at 5 I split my head open and had to go to hospital for stitches, I had a tea towel held to my head to stem the flow of blood. The second time was three years ago when I was admitted to hospital because of a flare of Ulcerative Colitis (IBD, Crohn's disease is the other type) and I lost so much blood over the months I had the flare that I had to get a transfusion and iron infusion.

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct
