Have you ever done something like this? Lets say you have what appears to be a cold, but you can't seem to shake it so you decide to go to the doctor tomorrow. Well, you have a little free time this afternoon and decide to surf the net looking for possibilities. Cold like symptoms............sure enough, I've got a cold. But wait, here is something more serious that has the same symptoms, and after more searching you find yet another and another, each more serious than the first. Well thank goodness this last one says you have to have itchy eyes, because it looks like a killer for sure! What is that? UH OH! My eye itches! Nevermind that I've been staring at the monitor for over an hour without blinking, I MUST have Rheumatoid Skeletal Valve Palpitation! OH NO, NOT RSVP! It says right here on my super duper fluxcapacitor.com search engine that at most I have 30 days to live if its in the advanced stage! I have eye itches, it MUST be in the advanced stage. I better call my family and close friends to let them know, but I just can't bring myself to talk right now, the shock is too much to bear. I should just fire off a couple e-mails to tell them whats up. E-mails sent. You think about who should get what belongings, what arrangements should be made for the funeral, etc etc. How could it all be over, and so soon? You manage to sleep 2 hours that night and show up at the doctors office before it opens. You tell them that you have RSVP. Well, why do you think you have RSVP? Well I have all these cold like symptoms, and my eyes started itching during my super duper fluxcapacitor.com internet search, so I KNOW that I have it. Just give it to me straight Doc how long do I have? Well, as best I can tell, many many healthy and happy years? HUH? What? I need a second opinion, whats going on here? Well, you have the common cold, get some rest and drink plenty of clear fluids.
Hmmmmmmmm, I sure wish I wouldn't have over reacted and told everyone that I was terminal with RSVP. I might have some explaining to do.
Of course that is a slight exaggeration, but does that happen to anybody else? When something bad comes up, do you always think its going to be SO bad, but it turns out to be far less than expected?

I got down on my knees and bargained with God... Fortunately, it ended up being a manageable condition.
