You : You must be a very strong person to have gone through all of that. It is also a miracle that you lived through a stabbing and a shooting. While you are clearly very strong and also were lucky, please take especially good care of yourself in the future. Please do not try to go that long without eating as it can cause long-term consequences for the body such as on your bones and liver. Please eat small frequent meals and plenty of fluids. Also you should establish a close relationship with a doctor because of your past traumatic episodes.
