23 With a defib.
by: AJ on Tue, May 22 2007

Its funny, you tell people that you’re twenty three with a defibrilator and the most common response is that they have an uncle or a grandpa who has one also. How do you do it?

How are you expected to go on and live your life as if it were normal. How am i supposed to pursue a life of a family. I would be cheating them out of a life with a husband and a father. I suppose wanting those things are completly normal and okay. But acting on them seems so selfish. I have my beleifs and I believe that God is greater and that ultimately He has a plan. I guess sometimes its hard to trust that when you have to be aware of your problem everyday. Its hard to just put it aside.
