    Default My achy breaky heart ❤️

    Almost one year after the heart attack, I got some test results today: One wall of my heart is damaged to the extent that it does not move at all. I also now have an irregular heart rythym, and still have a leaky heart valve.

    The good news is my cardiologist said the damage is "slightly less" than a year ago.

    Barring an accident, I think I have a pretty good idea of how I will go...

    Take care of yourselves, everyone.

    Holy Geez Abbey... c'mon now... let's keep the positive attitude no matter what.

    When Jim allowed me back, you were one of the people I was so glad to see again. You've always been such an awesome bedrock of decency, reason and patriotism. Please take care of yourself and know that you're in my prayers. The world needs people like you.

    Abbey. Your heart even at 50% is stronger than normal people's hearts at 200%. your love is your strength. You got this.
    “… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.

    Improvement is good.

    Are the docs going to replace the leaky valve?

    Not thusfar. I think that is the least concerning of the three.

    You, Abbey, Bilgerat, Tyr, and AT have all been in my 'heart' prayers too. Gunny gets his own.
