My journey began in April, 2009. I attended a monthly meeting for "Turning Point" for
St. Frances Hospital in Topeka, Kansas. I became a patient of Dr. Carlye Dunshee. I wasn't approved by my insurance until August, 2011. My surgery was scheduled for September 1, 2011.
Two weeks from my date of surgery I went into third degree heart block and had to have a permanent pacemaker placed. I was so afraid that this would cancel my surgery.
