Well I have lived almost a year with the LVAD2
I have gone to my heart doctors to see how I am doing thus far. I am in good health but the heart is still in bad shape; actually worse.
The LVAD2 I am implanted with gives the heart a break but doesn't fix it. I am now told my Right Ventricul is starting to enlarge and will fail in the future. They gave me at least a year to live with the LVAD2.
So the cards have been dealt and I must play my hand. I will continue doing what I have been doing because nothing I can do can change my hearts condition. I will live out this last year with high promise for a possible heart in my future.
Sadly without a heart i will die. I plan not to sugar coat this, i will be blunt.
The LVAD2 was the doctors' backup plan for not receiving a heart earlier. Now that I have the machine and the heart is getting worse I have only one option, a new heart.
I hope when my time comes I will receive a heart and my fears disappear but I will not turn a blind eye to the truth.
The fact is: In a year I need a heart or it will be the last year of my life.

Hey look at all this pointless gibber I have in here and pictures of me if you wish to see. I'm not to proud of them but go ahead and look.
There I see liberty.
