Default What just happened

I went to bed monday night and woke up with a pain in my side. By teusday morning I couldnt stand up straight. I went to the hospital and it was my appendix. Not really sure if thats how you spell it. Im a guy who never misses work and rarely do I get sick. Im a family man with a great wife and two kids and by the way I love my Bombardiers. I go into have my surgery and they tell me I have an irregular heartbeat. I wait for a heart doctor to give me the okay and find out my heart is a little weaker than it should be. Im healthy I thought but it really scared me. All I could think of was my kids and wife. I had a heart cath done and Im okay. They took my appendix out and could find nothing else wrong. They think they can get my heart back to full strength with some pills so thats where Im at. Im sitting here really sore from the two things I went through. Man I tell you something like that can really make you look at things alot different. Do the things you want and tell the ones you love how much they mean to you everyday. Thats what its all about in my eyes. Im sitting feeling really good about things with a great family and being strong in my faith. My statment to anyone reading this is live it to the fullest. Thanks for your time

All the best to you and your family.I went through a potentially life threatening illness just last year and it can really change your outlook on life.It sounds like you have everything under control now.I appreciate everything just a little more now.

You may not think this now but you are very lucky your appy started to act up. If it wasn't for your appy then they would never of known about your heart until you had a heart attack. Now that you went the cath lab you should be good as new! And I doubt you will miss your appy much[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Take it easy for now and I hope you a speedy recovery.

Sound advise. So many of us get wrapped up in the day to day BS that we forget about what is really good... family, friends, and of course the DS. I hope you get yourself back to 100%. Sounds like you are on your way. Stay positive, and gain strength from the love of your family and you will be fine.

BRO, sorry to hear of the ills. Glad to hear all is going to be okay! You have the right outlook though .. family is the most important thing a person can have and no doubt yours will help you to recover . Hangin with your kids and seeing them grow into a mini you is more important than working so enjoy your recovery time as you will heal faster than you think.
