The Power Of A Strawberry Filled Chocolate, Even Now

By king_jb_09 • May 15, 2025

About 12 years ago, I was at a (children's) hospital. I was born with a heart defect, and I had to go in for a heart catheterisation. The plan was a 3-day stay. Day with tests, day of the procedure, day of observation.

While walking between tests on the first day I spotted a poster for a chocolaterie workshop, where you could make your own filled chocolate. However, this workshop was during my procedure, so I couldn't attend. Being 12 and liking food / chocolate, I was... not pleased.

The day of the procedure comes, and it does not go well. I end up in the ICU and then medium care. A few days later I am feeding much better, and my mom tells me to follow her. We walk back to the first room, where I stayed the day of testing. Apparently a girl heard me complaining about not getting to make chocolate, so she made one specifically for me! And when I didn't return from my procedure, she even had the nurse store it in a fridge! Strawberry-filled milk chocolate never tasted sweeter.
