here's a show Michael floor is the luckiest guy you're ever gonna meet he is a guy who

checked into a hospital with COVID-19 spent five weeks in a

coma and recovered. Those first five weeks, he doesn't remember. Just somebody shoving

a Q-tip up his nose for a COVID test, then he wakes up.

My doctor introduced yourself and basically said, you know, I saved your life,

and I told my ICU staff not to fuck it up.

The doctor said every major organ in his body had

failed that Michael basically had no right to be alive. I didn't believe her.

I didn't feel like my life was ever in danger. I mean he felt weak but he wondered for a minute if he was being pranked.

He says hearing the raw emotion in his wife's voice really brought him around.

At one point they had phoned her to say goodbye to him. No visitors

allowed in the COVID ICU. The next few weeks before he left the hospital were no picnic.

His kidneys had failed and he was on dialysis which sounded like a very unpleasant life sentence.

He wanted to travel, do all kinds of things. He thought for a minute about ending his life.

He says the nurses helped him gain perspective. Respecting everything that my wife and my kids, what they had gone through.

Not to mention the many thousands of people who had already died from COVID.

The end that all was good.

Yeah.
