Further to yesterday's blog I forgot to mention something significant, at least I think so. During April 2009 I had a (minor) heart attack, and if anything puts your life in perspective, it's lying in an operating theatre watching a doctor look for blocked arteries - trust me, it's amazing but very scary! Since that time I have been on medication and probably will be for the rest of my life. The significance being that hospital stays and I do not get on - I have only been in hospital once for an overnight stay and in general I avoid the places as much as possible. So the thought occurred to me - and I think was a deciding factor - why would I voluntarily want to subject myself to more medication & surgery? I appreciate there are people for whom its an absolute life or death situation - for me, everything considered, it really wasn't. Just something I thought about after all the comments from yesterday
