True Story: A Dose of Kurko Inspiration

Here is a lil happening, that happened just the other day.

So I’m at work, just doing the daily routine. A customer comes up, as they have done many times before, to tell me that he saw all my stuff online.

Now here is the deal with it all, I have been changing this customer’s oil for over a decade. Never really knew what it was that he did for a living, but this day I found out. Many times people report back to me about what their experience was while reading the books.

This guy brought all my emotions to the yard with what it was that interested him about the book in itself. It seemed this guy had been the ambulance driver that had on many accounts been the guy that showed up when my dad had fallen victim to a low blood sugar episode, due to his diabetes.

He let me know that he was the one that had responded to the call that night my dad died. Matter of fact, he had been on many calls to assist my father with his diabetes. Low or high blood sugars.

He stated that he knew how to handle my dad. That when the newbies came they would always load my father up and take him to the hospital. A place my father did not want to be. Right along with the doctors.

You must know now that my dad did not like doctors, nor hospitals. Bad combination for sure.

So I got to hear from the EMS tech, that he was sorry that it had taken them that long to respond to that 911 call. I got to crush his demon of sorrow by telling him that “Whatever happened that night, my father was gone just as soon as his eyes stared off into space.“

“It was no fault of yours,” I had told the man. Seemed as if a weight had been lifted off him for that fact, and that I had personally made it out of all that had happened back then.

He told me a story of showing up on a call to my father’s house. My father had locked himself in the hallway bathroom. With doing that the EMS entered first to find out why my father was such a brittle diabetic.

So hears the big deal, with all this the EMS guy is who saved me a great deal of heart ache that night. He let me know that he had told the police that night that it was my dads diabetes.

I’ll tell you now, my books: Loopholes and Circumstances go hand and hand with the issues we face on a daily basis. There are different levels of life. Not everyone faces the same issues. Some are worse than others -that’s what I know.

Makes me grateful for the life I’ve gotten to live. This all has fueled Kurko Inspires, to be an inspiration, a light in the darkness. Don’t let fear keep you from living. Stand tall just for the fact that your story could save someone’s life.

My book “Issues” is a call to action. A raw and unfiltered look into my life. If you haven’t read any of my books, then consider starting with Issues. Check out the book trailer below.
