The worst experience of my life
Added 2022-03-07 23:20:47 +0000 UTCGreetings kind patrons of all kinds,
This past Wednesday, March 2nd, I took my dogs out for a walk, as I do every morning. There’s this canal that runs alongside my house, and I swear to God I’ve scolded my dog a hundred times and told him not to get too close to the water because he’d fall in one day, and, well, that day came.
My dog is old - he’s 12 - and he can’t swim. He was drowning, so I jumped in, and it all went to shit. The water was freezing cold, and with the temperature shock combined with my 75-pound dog, I couldn’t get us out, and I started fucking drowning, too. If it wasn’t for an older gentleman who threw out a hose for me to grab, I would not be alive right now writing this to you.
I ended up swallowing a LOT of nasty-ass water, and the physical effort I had made destroyed my muscles. En route to the hospital I suffered a micro-stroke (the cherry on top) but they were able to stabilize me.
I had to stay hospitalized for days, where they kept a close eye on my coronary activity and cleansed my lungs of the filthy canal water.
Luckily, I didn’t suffer any permanent damage to my heart, and my dog is safe and sound.
Considering how it all could have ended, I am extremely LUCKY.
I just wanted to let you all know why I’ve been out of the loop the last few days.
Please forgive me.

2022-03-13 08:09:56 +0000 UTCI am legitimately upset to hear about this -- even though we don't know each other personally, I have followed your work for many years and, in a way, you feel like a friend (and many others probably feel the same way about you). Please do whatever is necessary to take care of yourself and do not worry about the game. As a dog owner too, I am equally relieved to hear your dog is safe -- they are just as important as family. Your dog is lucky to have you. We are lucky to have you. The gentleman who helped you is a comforting reminder that people are still fundamentally good to each other in times of need. Please take care, Beggar.

2022-03-08 13:09:24 +0000 UTCAre you kidding? There is absolutely NOTHING to forgive! You are a hero for acting so fast to save your dog! Bravo sir! Take every minute you need to fully recover. When it comes to either your health or the game, to Hell with the game! I'd rather the game end right now and you continue living than having you work yourself to death just to please us. Priorities my friend!

2022-03-07 23:39:27 +0000 UTCThere is absolutely no need to apologize for this. What a harrowing experience. I'm glad both you and your dog came out of it okay. You take care of yourself, Beggar. Your health comes first and foremost so if you need some time off to recover, take it. We'll still be here. You rest up.
