One day years I woke up, not realizing I passed out. Something was wrong with me... so I stood up, took too steps, and fell back down. Everything around me was spinning. Long story short, I had to walk about 30 min to Kong’s County Hospital in BK. I tried calling people...
...nobody was picking up their phones. So I’m literally stumbling down the street in BK, stopping every 5 minutes to recover a bit, then keep going. I get to the ER, and wait for hours. No one called me back...
I thought something was really wrong with me...

Finally see the doc. She says she thinks I’m diabetic. They run the tests, turns out I’m not, I did have two infected organs though. “You’re lucky you got here when you did” she said. I stayed for a while. Then I had to walk to the pharmacist, and wait. Then walk back home.
All while dizzy and the world is spinning. Phone still no calls. That was a top 5 lonely moment for me. Everyone I called had legit reasons for not being able to talk, it’s not like no one cared about me... but that didn’t change how lonely I felt...
...when shit happened, it was just up to me. I had to save myself, support myself, remember to be strong by myself, guide myself. It felt like, at the end of the day... YOU better be enough, because that may be all you have.
Perhaps it was then that he carried me.
*Kings County hospital. Smh.
