35 Yr Old Mom W Cad,pad, Diabetis,etc Help! Posted: 07-31-05 23:33pm
I need to know if any one has the websites
for the mayo clinic or the cleveland heart
institute. I am 35 and have 2 young boys
and also raising my 17 yr old sister
because our mom died from cad 4 1/2 yrs
ago. The doctors say that there is
nothing more that they can do for me, no
more surgeries. I have had [since aug
2004] 2 pad surgeries on my right leg, a
triple bypass an my heart, a wound vac put
on surgicaly because my chest literally
popped open. I just had a heart attack
[mild] for the first time so they say
because it was mild that my heart muscle
is still good. My husband is not taking
the docs diagnosis too well. He doesnt
even want to came home because he feels
that they told him that he is only going
to watch me die. I am not ready to die!
I want to make life hell for my kids
first, you know. If anyone can help me I
would appreciate it. If anyone has the
websites or know of any new treatments
that may help me. Or simply to talk to me
and let me know that I am not alone.
Thank you.

I feel really sad for you. I am currently
25 and pregnant witrh 1st child and
suffering from angina which seems to have
no cause. I am convinced I wont watch my
baby grow up and I love my husband so much
that I cannot imagine us being apart.
Some days I just feel empty and completely
alone like I have to just get up in the
morning and focus on getting through that
day and nothing I do means a thing. I
have made alot of mistakes with my health
in the past and I feel I am paying now or
that I am supposed to be some kind of
example. I just pray that god has a
reason for all of this and that maybe it
will benefit someone sometime.

I think you look like a perfect case for
god. Just call out the name "jesus" and
he will help you.
If you don't want to die, don"t. The
mind, and possitive thinking does wonders
for a sick body.
All I can say is don't
god bless you
ps. By the way I was 25 when I got
cervical cancer, pid, urithitis and a few
others. I was 33 when I started having
heart pains, too young for hearts disease
they said. But low and behold 22
episodes when I was 41 and acute
miocardial infarction. Full blown heart
attack. Clogged artery cad.
2001 39 years old severe spinal injury--no
surgery just live with half paralized legs
and severe pains, diagnosed chronic
pain--disabled.
Not counting all the others diabeties,
high blood pressure, hiatial hernia,
fibrocystic breasts, severely high
cholesterol, and I am not going to die.
No way I refuse. I have children and
grandchildren to help raise.

I was 33 when I had my first heart attack.
Since then i've had four others to go
with it as well as being diagnosed with
diabetes and asthma. I currently work
four jobs just to keep my meds current.
Sure I feel down sometimes but i'm a
firefighter and have saved many lives in
the last six years so I see some purpose
to staying around just a little longer.
When my time is up and I have no more
lives to save then the job will be passed
on to someone else. The thing is you must
be positive about the future no matter how
bleak it looks.

God bless you firemansam--everywhere I go
I yell out, hi firemans-- I love firemen,
they made my kids so happy when they were
little. I would say hi firemans for
them, and that was like 23 years ago, but
it just stuck.
Yeah I answered your insurance question,
and here I meet you again.
I am also a walking miracle in the fact
ive been thru all this and I am expecting
a baby with no uterus. It is the
answer to a promise god gave me 18 years
ago.Just shortly after they removed a
cancerous uterus.
