Okay, please let me make one thing clear I wrote in my last journal blog as the topic open heart surgery twice in one life time. I would just like to say that if it offended anyone that was not my intention I simply as you all I'm sure had a moment of weakness. for that I apologize. I realize some of you had it three or four or maybe even many more times then that. You are all my hereos no matter how many times you or we all have had it done. I know what it is like to be sick and for the most part I had open heart surgery as a baby so I don't remember what it feels like the only rememberance I have of it is a not so faded scare ingrained in my skin a hole that looks like a belly button that I got teased about as a kid. oh and painful accounts from my parents of what they felt and went through and the rest of my family. I have a support group of allthe people I love some have passed and some are far away, but never the less they are all here for me. As for tomorrow I am going to face the surgeon again but this time as an adult and I will know every account of what's going on I am also bringing my mother it is going to pain me to see her see her daughter go through open heart surgery one more time the pain the terror the angish of what might or might not be now as a parent i understand what it feels like to die on the inside when something happens to your child no matter how minor or how big. what is to come and what might be. i am scared I have a family my boys who I cherish more then words could ever speak. I know one thing I am going to fight as hard as hell to come back to them and if i don't it was'nt because I didn't try hard enough it was because my heart didn't try hard enough...

Hi, to all my new friends on here, i just want to say I wish you all the best of Health and Happiness for you and your famlies now and in the coming years. Every day each one of us fights the GOOD FIGHT to stay strong and get ready for surgery recovery or newley discover all of the above. I believe we are not given more then we can handle Although I just question that very saying sometimes. We are special we are unique we are the chosen ones to I believe teach and have people learn from that is why we are given if you will this task it may seem like an understatement and like it's not much. How ever it is and as sure as the the sun rises and sets we will rise and fall and get back up again because that is life that is love that is strenght and what we are all fighting for in this battle of wellness to get there be strong and live another day for our family friends children and most of all ourselves. Sometimes it's hard o stay positive and be strong but we have a voice for those who don't to spread awareness and do our very best by example to just be ourselves love our family and just live another day in the end that is all that really matters... from my heart to yours God Bles and Happy new year
