I have been MIA the last few weeks. Why?
I had a cardiac episode and blacked out driving (i pulled over, so no crash but still less than ideal). After some testing I have been diagnosed with Left Ventricular NonCompaction Cardiomyopathy. I was in the hospital for just under 3 weeks, started some meds, and have had an S-ICD placed to prevent cardiac episodes in the future. This is genetic, my mum had it and passed away at 52, my nanna at 47, and my aunt has had a heart transplant. As a teen I had some testing done that showed no symptoms and was told I was fine. Evidently not.
Now I have a life filled with hospital rooms, surgeries, and scars to look forward to. A bit gutted but I am so proud of how much I have accomplished so far with our property. I am allowed to work in my garden, I will just need to take things a bit more slowly. Watching my flowers and admiring my rocky beds seems so much more filling. Home has never been more healing
