I woke up with a numb sharp pain running down my left arm. I considered the possibility of a heart attack or stroke which of course left me searching for medical help. On my journey to the hospital I seemed to begin to see some things with clarity.
First of all it occurred to me that this could be the last day of my life and what was running through my head as i breathed through a little oxygen tube and listened to the beep of the heart monitors that all I had been before would be over. I began to catalog my life and consider if I was the person I had wanted to be and if I was proud of my life.
In many ways I was. I had raised to wonderful children, been a good wife and been a successful teacher in public education for over twenty years. However, what dawned on me was that I didn't want to spend the rest of my life the way I was at that moment- alone. Thus began my path to find Mr. Right.
