Guest guest Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 Hi Jill ~ I am at the other end of Parmer, off I-35. I care for myself, live alone. Actually my father is here, and I am careing for him as he goes thru chemo for lymphoma. He is 80. I have saline implants in ! they are 8 1/2 years old. I had a previsous silicone rupture in the early 90's. salines put in the end of the 90's. Been too ill to have these removed ! ! I am 53, and have stage 3 congestive heart failure, and dialated cardiomyopathy. The lupus started after I had silicone implants. My grandmother had lupus, but the doctors said they thought mine was chemically stimulated by the silicone. Anyway, the lupus attacked my organs, and the heart has been too weak to have a surgery. The Texas docs I have contacted wont touch me but Dr Kolb in Atlanta told me she would do it as soon as I can get cardiac clearance. I had another heart attack this past July, and been careing for my Dad since the end of October, so it just hasnt been possible. Anyway, long story short, hopefully by the time Dad is done with chemo, I will be healthy enough to have the surgery and can go get it done. Life has definately been an adventure ! I would love to go back to Phoenix, but I live on a very limited and small amount of money and it is not possible at this time. I have seen the area where you live, but its been a long time since I was out and about...Hugs Dede Delicious ideas to please the pickiest eaters. Watch the video on AOL Living.
