Ever since then I'm deathly afraid of falling asleep whenever my throat hurts because I don't want it to close when I'm sleeping and I'm the only person in this floor in this house so I wouldn't be able to run upstairs and get to an ER in time.

I'm not wasted potential, you're just not worth my time.
The impossibility of perfection will tear me apart.
There's only so much you can do.
The Broken.

well your aunt is the first tim i have everr heard of that happening, so i dont think its very common.

if you have any throat medicine you should take it, and hot tea always makes my throat feel better :]
