Amazed

I just received a card in the mail from an old co-worker. She stated that she was so inspired by how up beat I was after having a pacemaker put in at 25 and that it has really helped her get through after dealing with the loss of her husband. He struggled with cancer for the entire time I knew her. I realized that she must have never known that the reason I stayed so upbeat when I returned to work is becuase what I was dealing with was nothing compared to her situation. She no longer works for our organization and she still made the time to send me that card. It really makes me remember that some people have it so much worse.
Just really shocked and thought I would share the story with someone...

I absolutely agree with you. We are so fortunate to have what we do. There are many out there who are not as blessed. Jen

You never know when someone is looking at you for inspriation. What a great reminder that we all influence people around us, even when we don't realize.

A properly implanted and adjusted pacemaker will not even be noticeable after you get over the surgery.
