Disconnection of the Heart

If you're expecting something poetic here, forget it. Ever since the replacement of my natural-born aortic valve with a pig-one, the electrical connection between my brain and my heart is just gone. This is the strangest thing in the world. I can feel like my heart is going to blow out of my chest when I walk upstairs for a glass of water or I can blast up the coast hills on my bike 30 miles into a ride and believe I could pull the world to the moon -- go figure. When the "specialists" mess with you, that's exactly what they're doing - they don't know.
