Hi T.T.: How thoughtful of you to cheer me on. Listen if you read my profile, you'll see that by far it's not been an easy desition, however, looking at myself everyday gets old, and the alternative is no better either. I have great faith in God, and like everything else, he has carried me thru, i trust in him that he'll be with me, my family, and Dr. every step of the way. So i am upbeat and inmense faith that all will go well. By the way, i had the nuclear stress test, yes it was hard indeed, i had no idea. I had some concerns, about irregular heartbeat, however, i just got the news all came back normal. Let me know when your date is, and if there's anything i can do, please advise. God Bless You:) Carmen
