3 Year Heartaversay

[Cinders123]

I am celebrating 3 years of life, love and laughter tonight... 3 years since my husband and I had to process and come to terms with our future after my Stemi heart attack. Our lives have changed, although not worse, just different. We have to plan our days, toilets, walking, my forgetful foggy brain, etc. We have been closer, emotionally since my heart event, and I laugh more, prioritise each other more too. Like hitting a wake-up wall and the realisation for us both that every day is a gift, and never guaranteed. We try and make the most of every day together and are just getting on with living the same as every couple. My husband is my rock, holds me close, reassuring me when I have a wobble, always my light and positivity, my soulmate! I do sometimes feel so guilty for giving him such anxiety and worry. I feel so lucky to be able to say over the last 3 years I have felt well and concentrated on our new normal, including working at home some days. My heart has gotten a little weaker however I am hoping medication will help me stabilise 🤞Sorry to ramble... I wish all you hearties my very best wishes, keep smiling, enjoy life! Sending you all squashy hugs 🥰 xxx

Hi Cinders, you shall go to the ball! Positive attitudes are as much a part of recovery and a healthy lifestyle as the physical stuff. Thanks for reminding us. I keep looking for the #chinkoflight and you've provided a great one today.
