The next decade....what's in store?
Musings of a yamfooted traveller still trying to shake off those last 20 pounds as she treks across the Caribbean
Watching someone have a heart attack is not a very nice thing. I thought at any time she might take her last breath, especially since the ambulance took forever! Might have been better to put her in my car and take her for myself.
Anyway, as I was holding her hand and talking to her to keep her with us while her husband went to pack her bags, I looked up at the serene scenery....
....the setting sun glistening on the massive expanse of water, people frolicking contentedly in the golden sand
...and I thought to myself, if I were having a heart attack and about to die, this would be a nice time and place for it to happen.
Fortunately she survived after a few days in hospital and was cheerful as she left to be reunited with her family tomorrow.
There was something else I was thinking as I watched her husband comfort her....
....who will be there to comfort me when I am 60, if I don't make arrangements from now?????????
