It is very hard to believe, this is year four after open heart surgery! What have I learned?
1 - Be proactive as a patient! Try to learn as much as you can! Read! Research! Talk to others that have been through the same medical problems. Ask questions of your doctor.
2 - Don't stop living! Do not sit around feeling sorry for yourself! Set goals. Travel. Continue to work.
3 - Exercise! You may not be able to run a marathon, but there are still activities you can do! Walk. Ride bike.
4 - Faith. If you are not involved in a church, talk to a friend or relative that is!
So, whatever your situation, keep fighting!!!
