About Me

I trained harness horses all my life until 1990 when I moved to Indiana to work at a Auto Manufacturing plant. In 2001 at the age of 49 I had a heart attack and 7 bypasses. In 2002 I suffered from Pleural Effusions in the left lung and underwent two surgery's for it. In 2003 two of the bypasses died and had to have angioplasty. Six months later I had to have a pacemaker implant. In 2004 I suffered a stroke from a blood clot that left me with severe left side weakness. In 2005 I was diagnosed with Parkinsons disease and Fibromyalgia. About this same time I also was diagnosed with Chronic COPD and as of late with Pulmonary Fibrosis. Just this month I was diagnosed with a bigeminy heart beat which keeps me up for hours not being able to sleep. I loved horses and fishing but cannot do either because I am homebound. I cannot breath in the heat and humidity and get sick with either pneumonia or chronic bronchitis in the winter. I lived through a bad ordeal last December after having Morphine and a Fentynal patch . My blood pressure bottomed out and I went into full kidney failure. The makers of Fentynal have a problem with the patches that sometimes they deliver to much pain medicine . It can give up to ten times stronger then morphine. I have lived through a lot and it is because I put all my trust and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
