Your name is Hugo.
I’m sitting on my chair in London, it’s 17:59
You searched for the word defibrillator on Twitter.
You found me.
That’s already (kind of) strange enough but that was not enough:
You subscribed to my updates on Twitter.
I received an email alerting me about it.
I check your Twitter page; not much info.
I check your website links (top right hand corner)
You manage a ICD user group blog in the Bay Area (SF I supposed)
I almost cried reading a few posts on your blog: it felt so close of what I experienced not so long ago, all the questions, the doubts… physically and mentally.
I read more and find this pictures of a tree encapsulated.
* picture by Hugo Campos – found here
I always found these natural behaviour beautiful – suddenly it struck my mind and realise why this picture is there, on your blog: the same thing is happening inside my body. I have a an embed object inside too, encapsulated.
I republished your picture on R-Echos: the tree and its metal protection.
It is a beautiful metaphor.
I twited about it and say hello.
You twited back with a link: a google map where those trees are, Google includes a 360 view in this area (not that common here yet) and suddenly I feel like super close to your reality knowing perfectly you are thousands of kilometers away.
I had to say it: It’s a strange feeling of closeness.
