Wow -- you started out life with a resounding entrance didn't you?!! ;) Second chances is something we all have had and we just need to remember them when we're at out 'wit's end' with others... :) :) Yvette*
*Please forgive the tardiness on my reviews (as well as this cut/paste addendum) - I've allotted myself some 'catch up' time today, and I'm trying to get 'read up' on as many as possible, but my fingers aren't nearly as speedy as my brain and the clock would like them to be! ;) LOL!

Well written throughout the examples given and of the luck opportunity. It really would be nice to have at our disposal a certain fixed number of lucky occasions in our life but this often doesn't happen. I'll wait for the next ones arriving. Good work indeed! (Since that day we been best friends. Since that day we have been best friends.)

I absolutely love the way you started this story off, Iza. You have a wonderful sense of humor that comes through to the reader loud and clear even though you are subtle with some of it:

"I should have been dead after my spectacular landing on the floor. See, it comes handy to have an NFL receiver as a doctor. "

Good write, my friend. I enjoyed it. :) Bob

I like this personal story of these defining moments in life, this moment when your father hangs you in a coat in the closet was really precious. I can't imagine what that must have been like! And the scene when your mother pulls you up from the water is another one of those moments when life flashes before your eyes without your knowing it. Kids are so immune from these things. estory

An excellent episode and entertaining post, there are some giant waves here in the local Australian seas my friend. Thanks for writing and keeping up with the news. Well done, blessings, Roy
Typo : You know, I was supposed to (have been) dead. 2: Suddenly a wave (snapped) me... Snatched? 2: That (all) she could see

This is a very interesting nonfiction story to follow. You sure survived some harrowing experiences as a child, which probably scared your parents to death.
