Lorna

As i look back on the last 8 years I cannot help but feel thankful and at times down right lucky to have met so many wonderful people, some have been so supportive without realising it, my medical care has without doubt been looked after by some wonderful capable people, fellow paients inspire me more than they will ever know but without doubt one person has made this journey the awesome one it has been.

I met my fellow patient lorna through CardiomyopathyUk and throughout the last 8 years as we have gone from fellow patients to freinds to finally living together it has been full of basically enjoying life.

i could list so many but my favourite is touring Scotland, we have covered all 4 points of our beautiful country together  we both have had times off work due to our condition, we both have the fatifue and mood swings attached to heart failure but together we understand it and found so much fun within it which i know is not the case with some family or partners.we are indeed a heart failure team

Through every scarey moment of my journey be it can i continueing working, is an AV Node ablation best idea or just basically to be honest with someone about the fears and doubts we heart patients get  lorna has been there and without her belief in me and honesty on when i am being a drama queen none of this would be possible .

i am lucky as a patient that i have a fellow patient to put up with my moods and believe in my dreams without basically questioning it as she shares my desire to get the most from this extra life we are being given.

Funny enough Lorna edits all my blogs due to my dyslexia so hopefully she will add a bit to bottom of this because this dream of End2End is as always a team effort between us both and not possible without her and this blog is to say thank you and love you.
