CHOICES

    I'M ALWAYS TALKING ABOUT WHAT WE SHOULD DO TO
                              "RISE ABOVE US"

WELL HERE I SIT REALIZING THAT I'M NOT EVEN REMOTELY

                   LISTENING TO MY OWN WORDS.

I'VE BEEN GOING TO THE DOCTOR LATELY BECAUSE I HAVE
SOME UNUSUAL THINGS HAPPENING LIKE PAIN IN MY RIGHT
                       HAND AND IT'S SWOLLEN.

  THINKING THAT THIS WAS JUST ARTHRITIS NO BIG DEAL...

BY THE WAY IF YOUR WONDERING BUDDY IS DOING GREAT.

ANYWAY WITH THE OTHER SYMPTOMS I HAVE IT TURNS OUT
          THEY THINK I MIGHT OF HAD A STROKE...

  I KNOW IT'S CRAZY THE PICTURE OF HEALTH THAT AM
        THAT'S A JOKE IN CASE YOU DON'T KNOW ME.

IT TURNS OUT THE EASIEST WAY TO FIND OUT OR SHOULD
                     I SAY THE FASTEST WAY...
   IS GOING TO THE HOSPITAL SO THEY CAN DO ALL THE
       TEST RIGHT AWAY STUBBORN THAT I HAVE BEEN
          AVOIDING GOING TODAY I MADE THE CHOICE
                  TO RISE ABOVE ME AND GO...
 
  HOPEFULLY I WILL LET YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENED.
