Close Heart Failure
Diagnosed with CHF last April. Was born with a congenital heart defect. Had a VSD repair in 1981 when I was 8. The CHF is a result of me having a serious heart arrythmia that I underwent an ablation for last year. Still have arrythmias and may be going back on Amiodarone. Not crazy to take it again because of its side effects.
Treatments
Open Bereavement
Type: Loss of a ParentMy father passed away suddenly in 2002. I was out of town and unreachable when he passed. I was never able to say "good bye" properly... the last time I saw him was in a casket. I am the youngest and what you'd consider "Daddy's Little Girl". I can't move on...I can't cope...I miss him terribly every day. Now with being diagnosed with CHF and having major clinical depression...seems like the pain will never stop.

Open Obesity
