First day back at work since the heart attack. I freaked out last night, culminating in another vaso spasm attack, just fearing that I wouldn't be able to manage. Almost called in to say I wouldn't start back until Wednesday but I knew it would only get harder and I didn't feel like spending another two nights in great pain caused by worrying about what might happen the next day.
It was easy today as there were no meetings and it was all about sorting me out and getting organized. I could just do that forever. I'd like that job.
Tomorrow will be different as, ugh, I'll have to work with people again.
I am committed to not expecting, not blaming, staying light and keeping my knees loose.

Little Brown Bottle
Just over two weeks ago I had a heart attack. I'm lucky in that my heart and arteries were not damaged and that I don't need surgery or medication. I only need to carry around a little brown bottle of nitroglycerin tablets and completely change my viceral and cerebral response to the world around me.
