My friend bought me three Baryon yoyos! My friend group bullied me into finally accepting a gift. They came in but I’ll likely have to wait a few days to recieve them. ![1000072939](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/e/2/1/e217d5f5a11a16b5e5f97f72e8f102387a0bf380.jpeg). I also decided to work on my looks a little now that I don’t have any partner. Wanna see my tattoo? No? Okay here it is anyways. ![1000007214](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/9/e/f/9effb2adbac9a7bdbfdc66393571b218fc9f5862.jpeg) ---

After 18 years of dealing with a handful of widowmaker heart attacks starting with the first one being DOA in the emergency room and having multiple stints implanted throughout a dozen years, plus Atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter and ventricular tachycardia. I have had An implanted defibrillator for 9 years and then it was replaced with an actual multi wire pacemaker. I have had an open heart surgery for a double bypass and Afib ablation surgery twice. I have the same cardiologist who saved my life in the emergency room in 2008 still to this day. My ejection fraction is hovering around 20%, it’s been as low as 15% last year. But I am still hear throwing yoyos everyday. I walk an average of 5 miles a day, 2 of which are with my dogs. I can still ride my bicycle around town most days. And I don’t need help being able to do anything. I’m still alive ---
