•I Don't Remember Mentioning My Heart...•

I will write more about my heart condition later, you know, explaining it all medically. For now, I'm just going to post some pictures of my recent Pacemaker/Defibrillator Replacement Surgery.  If you are a WOMAN and are reading this please click here to educate yourself about Women's Heart Disease: http://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/educational/hearttruth/


I am very serious about educating yourself, did you know that MORE women die yearly of HEART DISEASE than BREAST CANCER?? 

This is me before the surgery. Red hat, 
RED HEART FOR WOMEN!






Trying to smile after surgery!

It's me, Baby! Welcome back! DC is the best hubby, ever!!
LoL! I can't see him, that close! I'm Blind!! 


My Mom...Best nurse ever!!

My beautiful, daughter, Erica! Erica was feeding me ice chips because my throat was so sore after surgery. They put a tube down my throat for the doctor to see if there were any floating blood clots! I fell asleep between bites. =D  Thank you, baby girl!!


And of course, where I am, DC am!!
I LOVE this MAN!!

 Allergic to the pain medication, nose is itching!!


Now I can see better. Eating pineapple and cottage cheese!
 All I had to do was walk down the hall and back
then I could go home!



It feels better sitting up to sleep!
It's just a flesh wound!!

I'll leave you for now, but I'll be back with more Heart information. Remember it's National Heart Month, get yours checked TODAY!

bee heart healthy,
