More about Shannon:"Let's hope our children don't do the thing's we did at their age.
single mother,ex-navy,originaly from new orleans but still a bit leery to move back,still legally maried since i cant find my husband to sign any divorce papers,its been 9 years since he left,any such thing as a comonlaw divorce?did restaurant management til the economy tanked and i found out i have a rare heart defect so i can no longer excert myself,but life gives you lemons you make lemonade:]One week before my 33rd birthday...Expand for more
i had a severe heart attack.I was working three jobs to support my children ,the defect could have stayed dormant forever if i had not been doing so,my heart rate was at 240 before they lost it.It took 3 hits with the paddles and 5 shots of nitro to bring me back but the damage was done.The surgeons did a great job of carterising the hole in my heart wall but i can no longer ecxert myself or have any adrenaline rushes.I have to live a very Zen life not easy to do with four children.As for what you see when you die ,everyone always asks,you see nothing but the blackness of the back of your eyelids,sorry but there is nothing there.May I suggest a class action suit against the Vatican,I hear Erin Brochovich is still around.
Update...Turned down for disability because even though I have a hole in my heart I am not depressed about it ,lawyer said if I had depression it would have helped .Sorry but I am southern and unable to get ,be or act depressed .Now working at a cobbler shop ,very low stress and not alot of room to run and get tired .I love the human interaction too I had forgotten how nice it is to be around people after spending 2 years laying around the house being afraid to have the slightest bit of adrenaline ,my Doctor did up my meds to take into account my excertion levels now .".
