A recent posting of mine ended up bringing back a bad memory. The time I passed out after I was unable to breathe. This was a very frightening experience for me and it's not one I like to talk at length about.
I call it an "asthma attack" but I don't have asthma. It was just a time I was not able to breathe. This has happened before and still happens sometimes. But I know for a fact that I don't have asthma. Just a poor respiratory system.
And alcohol is a big problem with it. I don't know how, but the more alcohol I consume, the weaker my lungs get. It's like my respiratory system shuts down. There was one time I actually fell to my knees trying to breathe because I had too strong of a drink.
And today I just wondered, you know, why play with fire? Why risk my life just for a good drink?
And so I have decided to kill the drinker in me. This may shock my family (they're ALL heavy drinkers) but I have a child who I want to see grow up. I kinda want to stick around. And breathe okay.
I may have a sip or a drink once in a while, but always something mild and never more than one.
So long, you drinking fool! :ack
