I feel I'm the luckiest guy I know. I should have been killed a few times. Driving with a friend who fell asleep at the wheel, driving with a friend who was DWi and just missed hitting a stopped highway maintenance truck in the left lane of the BQE at 4am when I had just suggested to him to move over. Missed an outside construction elevator accident where 2 guys got killed, I just missed it going up, got broadsided by Mack truck a around 35 mph, was knocked out for 10 min but no damage. Lucky at work, became a partner and also got a nice payout after an rear end accident that required surgery. Dodged a pulmonary embolism after lumbar surgery. Hopefully I will dodge another bullet since they found renal tumor and something in my pancreas. I still consider myself lucky.
