SIMPLE TRANSFORMATION
My mom was told
I'd die very young
before my teens
so I'm told
nine siblings died young
then 3
others nearing 83
13th me
I'm still living
DNA is just basics
blood groups are different
each one for himself
brain's synapses should rebuild
a new creature
like you and me
is born to live die
till time's breeze
wills

dear Loved,
at one time, an ulcer ate into two arteries in my stomach. it was like a scene from "the exorcist" only, with Blood. I happened to (luckily) be at the doctor's office at the time. they rushed me to the hospital, not far away. I was dead for over three minutes, before they could revive me. oxygen deprivation caused some damage. I had to relearn to do a lot of things. and it effected my short term memory. thankfully they have therapy for that. may you enjoy a very long life with much happiness!
*hugs, Cat

sad to hear Cat
but glad you recovered fast
I have lived long to last

Safe life no strife be your choice
