hey all..43 year old male from the great state of WV...where the women are few and the sheep run scared! i have a hell of a background. all my life i have been a body builder..loved it..ate, slept, dreamed it. well back in 2007 i had a heart attack at the ripe ole age of 37.
had a stent put in. well that didn't work so they opened me up and did a triple bypass surgery. well..you guessed it..it kind of worked but since then have had two more stent put in. yea me! lol. since 2007 i have an artery on the back side of my heart they can't reach. it causes all the symptoms of a heart attack..often i add.
one day i can carry two 75lbs of sand and be ok..the next day bringing a gallon of milk home from the store makes me feel like im having a heart attack. so i have to decide everyday if it's the vessel or the big one. how’s that? lol. however i do live a pretty normal life. dr says im amazing that i can have such a positive attitude. what choice do i have? not ready to give up and die! i still fish, hunt, walk, garden, cook meals for me and my son. love to shop for food...can spend all day in the store reading labels.
so..pretty normal i guess. well...i won't bore ya anymore.
btw..the name is dave. add me..any questions welcome any time. best to you and yours.
remember if you have one foot in yesterday..one foot in tomorrow. Then your pissing all over today. live for the day!
