I took my usual walk in the neighborhood today.

I noticed that one man that usually passes by each day, has been missing for several days. I stopped his brother to ask where he brother has been, and he says he woke up with his face swollen, went to the hospital and had brain surgery. I couldn't believe it.. just reminds me each day is a blessing , because you don't know what tomorrow will bring. This man is about 73 years old, a few years ago he had an aneurysm.

@TheHorse he is home, has to wear a helmet, has an iv hooked up to him which his brother, will be injecting medication. He won't be walking around any time soon.. His house has a lot of steps to climb to get in, so to go to dr. appointments, will be hard . It is old house with small steps that has a winding stair case, to get in there. I didn't see the brother today , but I imagine he is in some pain.

That is terrible. It sounds like the man does not have good health. I hope the brain surgery helps him. You are right we have to be happy when we wake up in the morning and can get up and walk around.

Yes, you notice if someone is not around, if you see them ever day and suddenly they are missing.
