I am getting old and my body is not what it once was. Several years ago, I came down with bacterial pneumonia. It wasn't too bad. I went to the doctor, got checked out and was given some antibiotics. The doctor said that this malady will likely return in the future. In my case, it has. Just like the swallows at San Juan Capistrano. Every year in late January or early February, I get sick, sometimes very sick. This year was the worst. Last night, I had a case of the chills. They were coming and they were going. At one point, they came and did not leave for about 30 minutes. My wife was on the verge of calling 911 based on her fear that I was having some sort of siezure. I have to admit that I was getting close to the point of worry. Due to the uncontrollable shaking, I could not communicate well. I didn't have religious thoughts. My primary goal during this uncontrollable shaking was to inform my wife about the location of my life insurance policies.
Fortunately, no claims on the policies needed to be made. However, the event was a reminder of the need to have some things in order - just in case.
