Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.

Re: someone who saved another person's life
(Anonymous) 2025-03-07 01:10 pm (UTC)(link)Re: someone who saved another person's life
(Anonymous) 2025-03-09 07:54 am (UTC)(link)I had been staying with them as a caretaker/general gofer for when they needed groceries and such. Ironically I was set to go home that night because I was tired and needed a break. Grandma asked me to stay just one more night. Makes me think God was looking out for her cause she would have died if I left. Went to bed at 1 am and got woken up at 3 by her saying she didn't feel good.
Fortunately, I'd read an article that stuck with me about how heart attack symptoms present differently in men than in women and could tell what was going on. Called 911 even though she was insistent she was fine, she just "didn't feel good" and "couldn't catch her breath." Paramedics came and knew it was a heart attack too and finally managed to convince her to go to the ER. Called my two uncles and my dad to let them know what was going on. Grandpa, in a way that verged on dark comedy, slept through the entire thing.
Turns out later on it was a very close call. If she hadn't gone to the hospital when she did, the doctors later said it likely would have proved fatal and we would have found her dead, especially because she didn't have the presence of mind to call 911 herself. One surgery and a LOT of stents put in her heart later and she was doing well. Even tried to climb out of her hospital bed only a few hours after it was done to try to go to the bathroom on her own, which shows the Silent Generation really is something else.
She's still alive at 94, albeit with dementia that's hit about the middle point right now, but when she's having a good day she will still proudly tell everyone I'm the granddaughter that saved her life.
