DIDNT BORE ME,I HAVE NO ONE TO TALK TO ALL DAY OR NIGHT.
I ONLY HAVE A COUPLE FRIENDS THAT HASNT PASSED AWAY.MY NEIGHBOR OF 40 YEARS HAD COPD and smoked to the last minute before he died.If you want to yap send a reply.I dont get to talk to many people because most of my friends passed away,2 with copd,I with cancer and one with mercer from a knee replacement. In a week or so I have a 2 hour sinus surgery,that I have been waiting on for over a year.Wish me luck,im at risk having surgery with 1/3 a heart.A 2 hour nap will be good.
 
I don't know if I could take open heart surgery with the ribs cut and all.Id like to go to sleep from surgery and not wake up.I don't want to suffer like my parentsI sure have suffered enough the last 3 years.

After my heart attack I realized that nothing meant any thing to me any more, and have given about every thing away except for cats, which have ruined my house but kept me going along with 3 old dogs about 14 years old.

Hope you don't have to have heart surgery, but there are better options these days. After DH had quadruple bypass surgery (11years ago), they came out with "minimally invasive heart surgery" where they go thru the ribs instead of cutting the breastbone in half. Hubby still has times where he can feel the wire they used to attach it all back together.

Hubby's father passed away during heart surgery. Turned out his heart was not the only issue. He also had rheumatic fever. Hubby was only 5 years old. (Now 53). We were all very afraid of something going wrong during my hubby's surgery. I was pregnant with our 10 year old at the time and we have 3 more children (they were teenagers at the time of his surgery). I thank God everyday that he made it.

Check out your options before you are faced with it. In the meantime, do what you can to prevent it. You have to be your own advocate.

Material things are definitely overrated. :D
