Back in 1974, I suffered an aneurysm (a weakness in the main artery to the brain that caused it to pop) & it felt like a shotgun was fired inside of my head. While operating for 7.5 hours, my doctors discovered a second aneurysm that was ready to blow, so they had to schedule a second operation. During this time, it didn't look too promising, so my friends planned a memorial service for me at The Shrine in LA, & I basically attended my own funeral. Man, everyone was there...Sidney Poitier, Sarah Vaughan, you name it. It was special to see so many people there to celebrate what would've been my 41 years of life, but to now be in #London getting ready for my 85th birthday celebration concert tomorrow at @theo2london is absolutely unbelievable. After the operation, I was told I could never play my trumpet again, because of the metal implants, but I didn't let that stop me from pursuing other passions. If I sat around feeling sorry for myself, I would've never gone on to do "Thriller", "We are the World", "The Color Purple", or anything else that happened post '74. I had a 1 in 100 chance of survival after my aneurysms, so that also means tomorrow's concert is a 1 in ?... \(^o^)/. I can truthfully say that I've attended my own funeral at age 41 & my own birthday celebration at 85, & I'd take the second over the first, any time!!.
