I'm going to go with 'not dying' as the achievement of the year.
Sounds easy but boy, has it not been.
Had heart failure in 2022, and at some point in early 2023 it turns out I had a stroke and that seriously fucked up my head and destroyed my vision (I went meme-levels of cross-eyed).
2024 was recovery and uh, was not the smoothest. But fuck it, I'm almost normal and I didn't completely torch anything and so, yay.
That's a pretty good achievement!
Gosh I'm so sorry. Glad you are better. Mind if I ask how old you are that this happened to you?
Best as I can figure what got me was some delivery food, lol. The virus that damn near killed me is not especially common, and the usual means of transmission is fecal-oral.
So, some horribly gross restaurant employee was probably sick, went to take a shit, and didn't wash their hands, though not like that can be proven.
....I don't get delivery or eat out anymore.
