Comment What I am optomistic about ? (Score 1) 146

I have Heart Failure. I was a perfectly healthy 53 year old male with an unmedicated cholesterol of 154 in 2002. They say a virus attacked my heart in 2003 - 2004. I flat-lined on the table. Now I am kept alive by a fancy device called a Bi-Ventricular Pacemaker with and ICD. I also take what they call a heart failure cocktail of 5 prescription drugs a day. I am optimistic about the research in the field. Technology is my friend. Technology keeps me alive. I am particularly following stem cell research for actually rebuilding the heart muscle. I am grateful to be alive in this age and optimistic that some smart researcher will save my life. By the way, I am the CEO of a worldwide standards internet XML organization, so technology is my life.
