Wow, it seems unreal to hear it. That you can have something so risky to your life and just not know.

Thinking of you James, and reading this feels like time slows down and the intensity makes everything feel on fire..even just seeing this written on the screen. I can't even imagine how you were surviving in the eye of that storm.

That's partly why I'm writing. I'm still processing the trauma of those early weeks.

I want to say that I love this bit of writing but of course it's distressing and real and not pleasant, but it's also honest and very clear and I guess thought provoking about...so many things. Respect and appreciation to you.
