Title: Post Transplant, Post working and retirement
Post by: bountyhunter_ga on April 21, 2012, 04:26:30 PM

Hello everyone, well one and and a half years after the transplant and the blood pressure is going crazy.
I'm retiring from a life of law enforcement on April 30, my birthday present to myself.
I have been on lite duty for over four years now, Its time to take my SOC it pays more than disability without all the restrictions too.

Sometimes I have to wonder why I went through all the crap just to get here, but in between the viruses and high blood pressure life is still worth it. Do yourself a favor and get a cardiologist after the transplant unit gets you stabilized. I guess depending on your age and occupation blood pressure could unravel everything you worked for.
Retirement will allow me to find the miracle I needed to manage my new life style, work doesn't always understand. Be patient my friends a new life comes with a price so be willing to sacrifice life for a little inconvenience.

It's great to have such friends that shared such a horrible time together, we all live with each others understanding of the pain that others go through and survive. Long life my friend, I'm going fishing come hell mor high water.
