Also if you guys can bring/make home made non processed, low sodium food to the bbq. I am limited to 2000mg of sodium per day, and if ya do, can you label it? Its easier than you think, if not, no big deal. Just having you all there will be good for my heart! -

The problem is that Im running out of variety. The menu is fairly limited, and they have been messing up my orders daily. Pumpkn needs a break from this monotony! -

Uptate: I have been having "heart stop rythms" so in the next few days I will be having a pace maker/defibrillator implanted into my chest. It will keep my heart timed and restart it, until I get a transplant. Kinda nervous, but ready for the next step/challenge! -

Update: So turns out I do have an antibody to Heparin. But during the time it took for us to figure that out I have been making great progress. To the point that they are lowering my meds and changing them all to pills. Im not even sick enough to get on the donor list! Probibly going on wed the 7th to the "cath lab" for a procedure on my heart to try for a better rythem, by re calibrating my stock pacemaker, kinda... Everything is on the up and up, thanks again for all your support! -

Got some good news this mornin. Its lookin like I will be able to get better and keep my stock heart. The new meds are having a positive effect om my BP and heart rate. Gonna spend the next couple days awaiting the results of the Heparin tests, and (hopefully) get my heart in good enough condition to go home! -

Just sayin, tomorrow will be the last day I will be taking visitors until I get surgery, or moved, or something. I really need to just do nothing and take it super slow until further notice, gotta get this figured out and under control. I'm sure that you all understand. And I will be having a huge BBQ when I am released! I am also completely off the tabacco and pot, not worth it, cant take those kind of risks anymore.... not with my heart condition... -

So I may(may) be alerjic to a med thy use for the surgery, so I may have to wait for a transplant. Or my heart could continue to improve(as it has been, slowly) and medicate out in a couple weeks/month.... -

I got medical coverage and I think its DSHS, not sure.. huge weight has been lifted! I feel so blessed, by not only that, but the caliber of people I associate with. You all make my day, you are the strength I use during my times of need. Family, Friends, and some of you Ratsun weirdos that I haven't even met, you are all the wind beneath my rat wings -

Update: Mom is heading back to Puyallup to the Medicaid DSHS place to try to get me approved for state assistance/insurance. Everything at the hospital is on hold, everything, until I have coverage... Pretty scary to be in limbo like this, especially when its my life in the States hands... -
You guys are gonna make me cry..... too late! Your too good to an old car nut, dont know what to say. There certainly arent words in my vocabulary to define how much this means to me, and my parents. Especially after today! I found out that my sister is going back to drugs, ditching my family in our true time of need. Just before I went into the hospital, my mom moved her 87 year old father cause he needs constant care, now this stuff with me. And we have been raising her son(now 7) for over 4 years. I will have to move back in to the parents, disabled for who knows how long... You are really the best crew anyone could ask to be involved with, and again. There are no words to explain the weight lifted with any amount of help and support from you wonderfull people Not crying anymore (thats a lie)

So i go under the knife on friday to have a half electric heart installed. Then I wait for a transplant... I would love to see you all before my surgery, I need all the hugs and support I can get. They are keeping me at the UW medical center, room 5302 in the ICU, unit:5se, just past the 5th floor ICU waiting room. I look forward to seeing whoever shows up, I could really use the support! -
