It’s Been a Year Since My Heart Attack and I’m Healthy – Time to Celebrate

With all the interruptions the past two weeks, we haven’t had a chance to put up our christmas tree and decorate the house. I had planned to do it last weekend but ended up in bed instead. I went to visit my mom today and realized I’d be back next weekend since it’s Christmas. This year has absolutely flown by. We’ve made a pact to get it all done tomorrow for sure. We have one week from today until Christmas. On the 7th day before Christmas my true love gave to me . . . 7 swans a swimming!

December 21st will also be exactly one year since my heart attack. I remember being very freaked out about having parts put in my body lol. It was a crazy time to say the least. One minute I was at home watching TV and working on the computer and the next we were headed to the hospital. It began as a numbing of my right arm and then spread across to my left. It was somewhat like a hyperventalation that was much more intense.

We lived right by a hospital so I was getting treatment in less than 15 minutes. There’s hospitals within 5 miles of everywhere here, I swear lol. I started feeling better right away so after a while, I decided to head home though they wanted to keep me overnight to monitor me. I thought it might just be an anxiety attack or something similar and I felt fine so I signed myself out. Bad move. The next morning, I began having the same issues as I got ready for work so once again, we headed to the hospital and this time, I took a bag because I knew I wasn’t coming home that day!

My father had heart disease for 27 years so this is nothing new to me. I’ve made many lifestyle changes because he had a heart attack at 51 also. I totally believe that his history helped me because when all was said and done, I suffered no damage. I have always watched my diet and I knew the symptoms right away. Getting treatment immediately saved me from damage that could’ve been debilitating. I have stents now so my arteries will stay open for a long time. Other than the cost of the meds to keep me healthy, I’m doing wonderful coming up to my 1 year anniversary of being healthy again 🙂

I believe the stress of all that happened from the porn industry contributed to this happening so I now meditate and use my mojos and mantras to keep me relaxed which relates to healthier. I love music and use many songs to exercise to so I put this all together in a form of yoga/meditation program. The stretches are great for my back problems and the rest is great for the soul 🙂

You know, the main thing I’ve learned in the past year is that what happened yesterday doesn’t matter. It’s what tomorrow brings and how you respond to it that’s important.

How will you respond your tomorrows in 2012? I’ve made the resolution to “Shine a Light” on Sex Trafficking in America. What would you like to change??
