I found out that my heart was failing in October 2007 at 25 years old.

About me:  I am 28, I live in NYC, and I am on a non-stop quest for healing.
I have a chronic illness called Scleroderma / Mixed Connective Tissue Disease.

The doctors believe that the Scleroderma has affected my heart causing it to be 70% covered in scar tissue. I believe my heart was damaged by a virus that went to my heart since I was on so many immunosuppresive drugs due to my underlying autoimmune disease –and my body could not fight it off.

I also have a pacemaker/defibrillator implanted in my chest.

The docs tell me there is no cure for Scleroderma.  They tell me my heart condition will end in only one place: a HEART TRANSPLANT.

Yet, I am determined to CURE MYSELF! I know there is a way.

Thanks for being in my world
