Reading all of the "horror" stories it is easy to lose sight if the fact that it beats the heck out of death which is where I would have been today without it! Oh sure, it was a miserable experience in many ways but I have my life back. Most of us have made a pretty decent recovery from it. And yes, some people do handle it better then others.
