Anniversaries that you would not want to celebrate

I am still doing my notifications since after lunch, when suddenly, I recalled it is my first anniversary today, and this one, I wish not to remember anymore but I have to.
It is a year ago that I was brought to the hospital due to severe headache- a near-stroke. March 3, dawn, I had the attack.
This is one anniversary that brought me moral lessons:
Now, I have to have a light inside the room when playing games on the phone.
I have to take a glass of skimmed milk before I go to bed.
I have to restrict my salt, sugar, and fat intake.
I have to rest and relax.
Lastly and most importantly, I have to be stress-free despite having a sister who keeps me stressed most of the time. I have to keep my heart at its near-normal rate and rhythm.
There are lots more of restrictions that I should do, but those are my priority; others may follow.
Other anniversaries are the death of my beloved parents.
How about you, my friends, what anniversaries would you not want to recall and celebrate?

@ridingbet I did and we broke up as well. At least it's mutual and we end it on good terms. I plan to stay single for now.

@Anshu246 when a whole year leaves you with scars, then the scar will be there for a long time but you can still move on

@ridingbet so people with rheumatic heart disease should be on a low-fat diet?

that is the only type of milk for somebody who has rheumatic heart disease, because it is low in fat.

@hereandthere it depends on what type of RHD does a person has. mine is RHD-cardio-embolic, which means that i have a blood clot in my coronary vessels.

Probably the anniversary to my ex-husband, but I don't know whether I do remember the exact date for that or not since it was back in June of 1973. My dad was buried on my birthday in 1991 but that's just another date to me and didn't bother me at the time either.

@ridingbet No, I'm not sure of the date and I never think of it when the time approaches. It's been so long since that union was deleted that it doesn't bother me in the least.

I could think of a few but then I forgot already. Lol. Kidding aside, failed relationships - both platonic and romantic, deaths, sickness.
