2:30 A.M. Sunday August 7th I rolled over and pulled a second cover over me in bed. Two hours later I awoke to my alarm, I hopped in the shower. While making breakfast I was chilled, I thought it was nothing more than being wet from my shower. I dressed quickly, putting on soccer shorts and a t-...
