At the exact time one year ago from the time and date this episode is published, 10:15 a.m. PDT on September 8, 2018, I had one foot through death's door, and today, I tell my story leading up to what happened that day which will remind me and haunt me forever.

I am telling this story as a narration of my life, events, and things on my mind leading up to that fateful day.
