I met a wonderful new friend today. His name is Tony Jones, he too suffers from Congestive Heart Failure. He was fortunate enough to find a donor heart. The gift of life is a very precious thing. I want to talk about depression in people with heart failure. It is a very real thing to have to completely alter your life now that you have this illness. I want people to know especially my African American sisters out there that you are not alone. I am here if you want to talk. you can call me direct 941-567-4470 or hit me up in my email susan_washington@rocketmail.com. Any time of day. It is so important that you realize that tomorrow looks better than the day before and the past is the past. Each day we are given is a gift and if you are feeling so overwhelmed and feel alone please call me I would love to hear from you.

I'm sending her to your blog. The fact you had all these symptoms yet didn't go to the doctor is exactly how we are, too.
Thank you Susan. I pray our Father bless you and take care of you. You truly are an amazing person.
Miss Susan, you are a real blessing and I'm going to have my daughter watch your video's as well. Everything you have said is true. Even your life.
By the way I was born 09/10/1951. Type II Diabetic, winded just walking around the house, even the feelings you express.
I know God brought me here to help me through you and your knowledge of this disease. By the way, I too, went to sch. for Medical Assitant. Two of my daughter have and one now id getting her R.N. But the other daughter is having swelling of her feet, legs, even face. She is having many of the symptoms you say you have had too.
I'll email her right now, but want to thank you so much. You have given me more info than anyone and I am grateful. More than you'll ever know. Kandie
