Although I am a few years older than Samantha Denmark, I am in the same boat. I am 52 years old. Until June of this year I had spent the past 21 years as a hard working nurse. I suffered a severe heart attack on June 24, 2004 and had quadruple bypass surgery on June 29, 2004. I was doing great for a while, then my energy level started to drop and I started having chest pains again and had to go back on Nitro 3 times a day. I had another cardiac cath on Thursday, September 23, 2004. Three out of four grafts have failed and I am not a candidate for redo or angioplasty. My only alternative now is transplant. I too have a family who needs me. Please remember my family and myself in your prayers.
Thanks,
