The day that changed my life

The picture was taken from a video; it was right after the cardiologist told me I had a heart condition called Nonischemic Cardiomyapathy. I was so afraid and all I thought about was history repeating itself with my dad dying when I was 2. I didn’t want to leave my wife and kids stranded without a husband and father.

After I had got the news

I walked around in a daze for weeks , thinking how could this happen to me? GOD, what’s the lesson!? I was angry and scared, feeling I have so much more to do.  Maybe its a family curse, I felt sorry for myself, but I tried my best to put on a strong front, but my wife knew the truth. She witnessed me privately. I prayed so much, GOD and I have  continuous  conversation [prayer].

The treatment: prayer and two medication to lower the strain on my heart to allow it to hopefully repair, We had to ramp up the dose to the max gradually to see how I could handle it. I also had to change some things in my lifestyle, Had to make some shifts in my diet, alcohol intake and pay close attention to my body reactions when I ate certain foods. Luckly my body responded well to treatment. I’m happy to report that my 2nd  Echocardiogram came back all clear. Praise GOD .   We’re going on our 2nd year and thanking God for His continuedhealing… 爛 I thank everyone that has kept my family and me in your prayers……❤
