Ok, so its been almost 2 yrs since my whole life did a complete 180, and im still not used to it. I medically retired from the Marine Corps at the age of 22, due to a bad heart in which i ended up in the hospital for a week and a half and almost died. This heart condition i have is called Long QT Syndrome which i never knew i had till 07'; when i went to do my physical for the Marines they never found it and marked that my heart was normal, they never knew i had it either; it was so underlying that because I joined the Marines it made it worse. Now days im stuck at home all day, i get my 100% Permanent Disability check through the VA, which is all good cuz i cant work and all, I still i have my syncope episodes; and here it is almost 2 yrs later (O and by the way i have a Defibrilator) so i have to be very cautious what i do, and where i go. I dont think ppl understand how all this has affected my life, i went from bein this young healthy woman and the next minute im layin on my deathbed, and the Dr's tell me if i dont have a Defibrilator put in, I will die within the next week. And me being a Marine and all, I was tough, and still am. But if you could only see the look on my face and how scared i was; it makes u completely not wanna take advantage of how good u have things, cuz in one second your life can take a spin for the worse, and you may not know what will happen. Now i cant get too excited over anything, my heart rate will get bizzark, I cant get overwhelmed, because i feel like i cant breathe, and i get myself all worked up, and have to calm down. I have to be careful with everything. I once was a daredevil, and like to do thrill-seeking things, but now i cant. And yes, as you can tell im still bothered how my life has turned out. But like they say, Life never turns out the way you want it to be. And from experience i know this first hand, and it is hard.
