After reading this I can see how writing about the problem actually keeps your mind off the problem and helps you deal with it at the same time and eats up those waiting hours. The heart is a particular thing. Did you ever wonder why some people are born with great tickers and others are not? My brother is a fit athlete and has competed in triathlons and bicycle races since he was a teenager. Suddenly before getting a regular colonoscopy check he is required to get his heart checked. The result is that his heart has been irregular since birth. Until he gets surgery he is ordered not be alarmed or stressed. His middle name is stress. Anyway it seems people really don't have much choice except to give thanks and find something good to do or to complain and feel sorry for themselves.

I was able to prolong the life of my heart because of my effort to reduce the root cause heart failure for dialysis patients by keeping my blood pressure in check and not being so much waterlogged which is a cause of left ventricular hypertrophy or enlargement of the left side of the heart and not eating fatty foods which I can never do anyway because of my lesser desire to eat.
However there is an ongoing process of soft tissue calcification which involves the heart valves, lungs, and calcification of my body's veins especially to and from the brain, and even my vision. That is why I cannot live "forever", there will be a time that one day my final will be exhaled.
