Everyone who reads this was at some point(s) in their life seconds away from death, without realising it.

If they did not die, then they were not seconds away from it.

You're always seconds away from death. Just take another breath to reset the clock.

If you ride in a car on a highway you are seconds away. If you count your days and weeks and years in seconds, you are seconds away

Better title would have been:

Someone out there is reading this while taking a shit instead of working!

I already know of a couple occasions where I was close to dying. Once at 5 I split my head open and had to go to hospital for stitches, I had a tea towel held to my head to stem the flow of blood. The second time was three years ago when I was admitted to hospital because of a flare of Ulcerative Colitis (IBD, Crohn's disease is the other type) and I lost so much blood over the months I had the flare that I had to get a transfusion and iron infusion.
