How it all started

I was very sick so my bestie Ann thought nothing of the fact that I skipped out on Saturday brunch or when I didn’t show up for work on Sunday.

I probably had a bad case of the flu. But when members of my team and the General Manager, Barry, started asking if she had heard from me she knew something was wrong.

So Ann cancelled all her meetings and drove over to mine. When she buzzed the intercom the nanny, bless her, was screaming “Madam is dead!”

Luckily, an ambulance was on its way so when Ann found me eyes rolled back and tongue slightly out she spoke to the paramedics and got me breathing again – even though I didn’t recognise her or the place I was in.

So – what I thought was my perfect life was gone in a second.
