       Today's the day

       I meet my cardio surgeon. 9:40AM appointment at U of M Frankel
       Cardiovascular Center.
       Figures that for the last couple days, my truck has been
       displaying electrical issues. Totally intermittent and hard to
       diagnose. If I can get it to start, it'll run fine---got a
       battery charger/jumpstart gizmo, so we'll get there---we'll
       worry about it starting to get home after.
       I've been waiting for this appointment for months. No way I'm
       going to miss it. Been feeling steadily weaker and crappier for
       a while now. Got to get this happening.
       Hoping to give y'all a surgery date next post.
       Wish us luck.

       Got damb.
       Surgery is not indicated. My local cardiologist was all wrong.
       I cannot tell you the depth of my relief.

       ...one week later...
       Fellas, it feels like I've been given my life back! A great big
       HUGE weight has been lifted, from me, from Cinny, from my
       friends and loved ones.
       I can sleep again without waking in the wee hours in a panic. I
       want to DO things again.
       I actually did something I said I'd never do---I opened a
       Facebook account. Reconnecting with a lot of family and friends
       who I had kinda isolated myself from. Shit can be addictive,
       though---getting over my initial fascination, but it IS useful.
       Realizing how much negativity and hate (others' AND mine)
       happens on some of the forums I was posting on. I think I'm
       about over that. I like it here because there are only a few of
       us and we treat each other well.
       Just wanted to share this update. Time to get  busy---weeds to
       pull, compost to turn, life to live.
       :)

       Thanks, friend.
       Happiness, to me, is kind of a fleeting thing. It comes and it
       goes. Difficult to sustain constantly. I do have times of great
       happiness, though.
       I'm certainly feeling more contented than I have in a long
       while. Much more positive and motivated. Even beginning to get
       over my pissoff at the cardiologist who gave us such a scare.
       Thanks again, I appreciate it.
