It Was the One Year Anniversary This Past Wednesday August 13th

Reeka · 08-15-2003, 09:17 PM

That's right. It was a year ago that I had my heart surgery and I feel.........WONDERFUL! Better than wonderful. I think for the first time in my life I am relatively healthy and probably feel like most people do all the time. I didn't know you could feel so good all the time.

I haven't misses a single day from work in nearly ten months. Something that has never occurred before.

I was literally dying just over a year ago and now I am well and am so thankful.

I just want to say this: if you are always feeling bad, you never feel really good, you are tired or listless all the time, don't just assume like I did that it is just due to stress, overworked, trying to do too much in too little----go to a doctor! You may be very sick and not know it. I was and nobody knew until it was nearly too late.

Go to a doctor and get it checked out. I realize now that not feeling good is NOT normal.

Thank you for being here for me--all of you.

*hugs*

Wow, I didn't know you ever had heart surgery Reeka, then again I haven't been here that long. It's really good to hear you're doing good.

Hope things stay that way

It's my job to make sure she has a good time now that her heart can stand it! It really doesn't seem like a year to me either. I guess all life-changing events are like that. They all feel like they happened yesterday, espewcially if they were good life changing events!
