About Me
I am 49 years old, had an acute MI X-mas Eve., 2005 I had complications due to COPD and shock. Was in intensive care for 3 weeks, had total organ shut down. Just recently been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, need to take insulin shots. Not very happy about that. Right now they are looking at me for a heart transplant possibly a heart/lung. I am married have 2 grown children and have an 8 year old grandson, who lives with us and is the light of my life. Maybe thats why the guy upstairs wanted to keep me around for a while...who knows.
Interests
I love to read, play internet games, go visit friends. I also like to go to the casino once in a while. LOL...as long as I'm winning
