Global Happy Holidays!

I wish every reader on the BB a Special Holiday Season, blessed with Peace and Joy.

Thank you all for your caring support this past year. May we all have peaceful hearts in the year 2004.

Thank you, Hans, for providing this medium of support. We are all the richer for it.

Most sincerely, Jackie

Thank you Jackie and thank you all for your participation and support during the year. I join Jackie in wishing you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy Holiday Season and all the best, including lots of afib-free time, for 2004. I have a feeling that we may be making some major breakthroughs in the not too distant future.

Hans

Thanks you, Hans for your very capable management of the web site and the intelligent analysis of the findings. I, for one, would be quite lost without this web site.

Wishing you a pleasant Christmas and a productive - and therefore satisfying - New Year!

I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and newfound knowledge for the New Year. May we get to the "heart" of this matter that challenges all of us daily. May each of us find the strength, courage and dedication to give our body what it needs, and know, that whatever we put into it, is what we get out of it. May all of you be blessed for your dedication in trying to help each of us, through your kindness and sharing of knowledge. May we each acknowledge and appreciate the people that remain here, to serve and help others through their own experiences of eliminating AF. And above all, I cannot thank you enough, Hans, for the time and expense you put into the management of this website and the surveys that you do, not failing to mention the very informative book you wrote.

But most of all, I must give utmost recognition to my creator. He has been there with me every step of the way, guiding me, teaching me, carrying me, loving me, and giving me purpose. As hard as it is to believe, I know what has happened is for a purpose, and I shall not let him down, for he has given me the fortitude, will, mind, and friendships here, to help figure this out. All my love and respect God.

Wishing all the afibbers Merry Everything and Happy Always. Special thanks to Hans. This is something we can never say about, "now I know it all". There are always new ideas and those incredible tidbits that the doctors don't seem to know about. If I was suddenly cured, I think I would still log on and contribute, as I also gain something from the "Newbies", and that is the reminder of things that I have been so frightened by and didn't understand, and I think it keeps us ever mindful of where we have been.

To all: Good luck and Blessings for 2004; I think we are all headed
"Towards A Cure".

Merry Christmas
The Internet is a wonderful medium, which should remain totally uncensored, even with various evil entities as part of it. I have gained much support from this site and continue to try the minerals and supplements in conjunction with modern drugs, although at times you do feel like you are losing the battle.
A new year is upon us PVA is increasing in momentum, thanks to all of you who have undergone the procedure. I personally think that the main “cure” is going to be an operable procedure, but have no doubt that supplementation will keep the heart in good shape for this.
I am going to try stress management to keep my anxiety levels low and try my best to recognise the condition, as it is, maybe not let it occupy my mind so that it dominates my life.
I ride a motorbike every day in all weathers and there is far more chance of me dying from that than AF.
I am going to be more positive and not let this thing drag me down.
All in all have a good one and look forward to a new year, which brings us ever closer to a cure.

To everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. To those who have contributed so much to those who have sought out answers to many questions that have been of serious concern to those with limited understanding of this malady.....God's blessings to you. You are very much appreciated way beyond what words can express.

Thanks to one and all here on this caring and sharing forum so kindly and ably afforded to us by Hans - I don't even want to think where I would be psychologically without the kindness and support I find here with all you guys and gals. OK, so I may overdo it a bit at times as regards obsessing here at the PC about AF and ectopy, but I ABSOLUTELY KNOW that I am far far better off as a result of communing with all of you here as opposed to blindly stumbling on in a state of relative ignorance and panic. I too believe that relief for AF sufferers is not too far around the corner, so in the meantime let's continue to help each other to hang in there with this unwelcome visitor which plagues (or has plagued) us all to a lesser or greater degree.

Best seasonal wishes to Hans and all,

Mike F.

Let me say AMEN to all the posts I've just read, and add my own gratitude and good wishes for all of you. Let us trust that God is with us and help is on the way. In the meantime we can help keep each other informed, light hearted, and peaceful of mind. I think the work that is done here is being related to doctors and they may catch on soon enough to help us and others.

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Happy New Year

Everybodys invited to my place for eggnog tonight..

EGGNOG?!?

Is that OK Fran, Richard, Jackie?

Hey Sammy - Count me in! I'd love to come, What time?

Pam - a little treat now an then is better than total denial and all those negative feelings of deprivation. Moderation. Everything in moderation.

Now...about Fran.... I'll bet she'll say..... no no no. Just kidding, Fran.

Cheers to all.

Jackie

Thank you Sammy
The egg is ok but the Nog is a No No for me, not ruining 21 years sobriety for a little Nog. And no Jackie I don't feel one bit deprived at all just very thankfull to be rid of that monster.

God bless you all .... Ella who would rather be in afib than back in the alcholic state.

Allright fine..fine.You`re all invited over for EGGS...Hold the nog..It just wont be as festive but I guess I could whip up some over easy or scrambled.

Been told to hold the eggs sigh!!! watch the Cholestrol

When's the next flight out of Heathrow..........HHHmmmmmm i don't drink can i have errrrrrrrr Water please......Shloer tastes nice just fruity drink.

Well gang if it wasn't for all you good friends all over the world and Hans for making this site work for us i for one wouldn't know what to do ..even though i can't understand a lot i get the gist and feeling so much better than i did 6 months ago.

Babs

Pam

Ahhh egg nog. Sammi I would love one but am going to resist just now.
Maybe in 10 years of no AF etc I will try one, or the day I get diagnosed with something terminal. My dad used to drink egg nog and I would lick his glass clean. Whats in it again? I can smell it just sitting here.

Happy holidays to you all

Fran

So thats it..............were all going to Sammy's no excuse.

I'll bring the smoked salmon and crackers.
