My Journal: End of Life
I believed it when Trump told us that the Corona-virus was a hoax, and I followed his example. I eschewed wearing a mask, gathered with friends, and went to the bar with my friends the night it first reopened.
That was a week ago. Now, I’m just waiting for the end. Breathing is difficult, but with the morphine drip to keep me comfortable, I don’t really notice it. Still, this is a struggle, and I’m mad and disgusted with myself for believing in that fucking fraudster.
There is a unique clarity that I have lacked over the last twenty years of my life. That may be in part due to my doctor being of Indian birth, and my nurses being a mix of Black, Hispanic, and Asian backgrounds. They have made me aware of my prejudices without saying a word about them. They have been more than professional. They have been humanitarians and shown me much kindness. I don’t get much of their time, because they are overwhelmed with all of us requiring so much attention. Yet, when they come by, they take a moment with each of us and make us feel less alone.
Right now, I wish Rush Limbaugh and Alex Jones were here with me. They need to be among those leaving this life for the lies they have spread over the years. I can’t even remember how I got started listening to them. I just did and slowly fell into the trap of believing what they were selling. No matter, I must accept responsibility for my own stupidity in allowing them into my life.
Writing this is very difficult. Well, typing really, as I couldn’t sign my name right now if it were necessary. As it is, I am hunting and pecking on my little Bluetooth keyboard. Thankfully, I have Grammarly to help me with correcting my mistakes. Though, honestly, it wants to fix items that are not incorrect. Sometimes it just annoys me, but I can live with that.
