I Have Heart Failure

I suffered heart failure in April and was in a coma for 10 days nearly died and was in hospital a further month till I was fit enough to come home .I was then bed bound a further few weeks as I was too weak to get down stairs .I am now slowly getting stronger but rely on a mobility scooter to get around outdoors .I cant drive and due to go back to hospital to have an implant fitted in my chest to regulate my heart which is now only working at 25 percent and kick start it should it stop . I now feel like a pill bottle being kept alive on loads of medication .Now I live day to day in the hope I wake up each morning and live another day .
What do you have to say about the value of each breath and life, in general, now? I am curious.

@PoetryNEmotionstart each day as if its your last and treat others the way you would like to be treated
@Rhodesianman So many people say that you should live each day like it is your last, but, I find, that it is only life-altering things like facing death like you have that make people rethink and live new lives. The pace maker will make a certain difference for you. I wish you more years and improvement and blessings.
You're fantastic and VERY courageous.

Blessings to you, always.
