I almost died…

Still might, actually, if I can’t get this under control. For 5 days, I was on the brink of death. My body fought against every survival mode I had. I slept almost continuously. Water was the only thing I could ingest, and only in small increments. Poison control had nothing to counteract the effects. My body shook with pain.  My intestines cramped and burned, my kidneys throbbed. My pulse was so escalated it felt like one constant push. Even my skin ached; I had no idea that was even possible. My head swum with nightmares and confusion. Lack of nourishment made me so weak, my ankles scream when I attempt to stand. If I’d had any spare liquid or energy, I would have cried myself to ruin. I can’t remember the last time I’ve been this scared. 

Did you feel it? Would you have even known if I died? 

I’m pretty sure you really wouldn’t even care.
