  • A Big Thank You…

    Last year after I came home from the hospital, I posted a short thank you to everyone who had helped me during my event on my older Facebook page. I now want to repost this thank you as I have reconciled all that happened during that very brief day and a half of my life….

  • I Can’t Believe This (Reflection)…

    I woke up from a very needed sleep and in my own bed. This was a moment to celebrate. This was also the moment I began to think more deeply about what I had experienced and what the various conversations between the doctors and nurses had revealed about my outcome. I seriously thought about that…

  • Discharge…

    A steady flow of new specialists and admin staff began to come into the room to go over their specific instructions related to my being discharged.

Inspired Heart New Beginnings & The Cardiac Blogger

Introduction…

I chose a blog platform to share my story of recovery and change over a prolonged period of time since my story cannot be captured in a simple writing as it is still evolving. As my story continues to evolve, I plan to reveal my story in vignettes from past memories and from recent activities. Using this format, what I am looking to do first is to share this life changing event that could have ended my time here in this world along with my recovery and new discoveries about myself. I will then insert the setting of new life goals and interlace past memories that might help in your understanding of where I have come from, and where my rebuilding and new discoveries may take me.

So, this is the first time I am sharing my story of recovery and new beginnings after experiencing a life changing event. While I am not sure this story will be of interest to anyone, I feel that sharing my story might help to encourage others to know that how you respond to life changing events will help you with your vision of where your future can go. Please join me in my journey of recovery, change and new beginnings.
