Today was an anxious day...

I went for my 5 year "MOT" at QEH. Jane and

I went up early in a hopeful mood, hoping that

all would be ok, but tinged with trepidation in case all

was not well...

THANKFULLY, QEH are satisfied at present, and apart from a telling

off for my weight gain (And trying to do things that are a bit dangerous!)

I was allowed home with just some alterations to my medications!

After the 5 year anniversary, and now today, my spirits are

lifted from a dark mood following some complications and

angst earlier in 2013.

My thanks to you all for your continued support, interest,

friendship and caring, without which my ongoing life and loves

would be fruitless. Special thanks go to QEH Team, my Jane, Parents,

girls and loved ones (Samuel still a bit young to understand!)

I often think about my donors family and wish I could tell them

how grateful I am, and how I hope my donor would be proud of

the gift they gave me, and what it has allowed me to do...

Today is the 5th anniversary of my Heart Transplant.

It is with much thanks and love that I spend the

day with Family and loved ones. All the ongoing

love, support, laughter, and understanding is

appreciated beyond measure...

I send a prayer and thoughts however to my donors family

who are today mourning the loss of their loved one who

so courageously gave ME the gift of life... RIP.

Be thankful followers and Carpe Diem !...

Life is a short, fragile, and precious thing...

Happy New Year.
