Maybe he was right by my side when I came back, and then he left to go get help. And I was there by myself for a bit, and maybe that's what I'm remembering. Like, I feel like the recall is a little blurry.

I felt fairly calm and resolute in that moment. One thing I've learned about myself is that I tend to have a fair amount of composure in really stressful moments. And then in the aftermath, once the acute crisis has moved on, then all the flood of emotions come in. But I remember being backboarded and carried for a distance. I remember cracking jokes while being backboarded. Oh, really?

One of the things I remember being a little like joking cynically about was the people, friends, would encourage me to make more art beforehand. And I felt like I never made time or space for it in life and didn't prioritize it. But it was something that, like, for years, people would gently and kindly give me this encouragement. It's like, you should do more of that.
