Remembering Arthur Ashe...

I always think of Arthur Ashe when the U.S. Open is playing in New York. At the same time I had a blood transfusion for an ectopic pregnancy, I was aware that Arthur Ashe had a blood transfusion for some procedure. But, unfortunately he did not survive and I was fortunate enough to survive.

I have survived several medical issues and am thankful that I survived the ectopic surgery, I sure wish Arthur Ashe, the tennis star had survived also.

Remembering this episode makes me appreciate surviving, and it gives me courage to survive my cavernous angioma.

It also makes me think that I tend to be a bleeder and it might be related to why I have brain bleeds In years to know, they will have more answers.

Meanwhile, I remember you, Arthur Ashe...
