An Infusion of Hope!

Hi Everybody,

I'm new to this forum and have had my pm only since 2/25. Its necessity came as a complete shock to me (no pun intended). The mental/emotional changes I've gone through during this process have been greater than the physical ones, but I'm adjusting well I believe, and have benefited from this supportive site.

For anyone who may be depressed about their physical state - or even if you're not - I would encourage you, if you can, to check out today's Oprah show - Extreme Life Extension with Dr. Oz. While it doesn't address pacemakers per se, it gives an infusion of hope to people living with physical/organ issues.

I was blown away by this show. Dr. Oz admitted to being blown away when he visited the facilities doing this amazing work. Even he had no idea how far we've come. Growing a new heart from our own cells? Wow!

So, I hope you'll be able to tune and I also hope that it gives you a boost, whatever your current situation.

I've seen many posts about people being concerned about exercise after having a device so thought I would let you know that yesterday I raced my first marathon since having my pacemaker fitted in fall 2004.
