Years later, I was at a party with some friends. One of the ladies passed out and she was rushed to the hospital They did a ton of tests on her and found an aorta aneurysm that had to be operated on. As soon as I heard this, memories of my friend popped into my head. I did not know this lady too well, but she was friends with a very good friend of mine. The family thanked us for being there with their daughter. They told us their daughter had to have an important operation on her heart. The operation was successful and the lady survived the biggest scare of her life. She is healthy and is living a wonderful life. I still look back to my friend and wish they found out what was wrong with his wife in time.
I believe medicine has advanced a lot of the past twenty years or so. Doctors can find problems now that slipped by them in the past. If my friend's wife was born twenty years later, she would likely have had a great chance to survive. This does not help my friend, but it helps many of other people who have loved ones who need this important surgery. Modern medicine has improved leaps and bounds since I was in college. I am sure we will see more miracles happen in medicine in the near future.
