The worst experience of my life (Patreon)

Greetings 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.
