Aging will cause me to need stronger meds, eventually, and there's the possibility of ablation again, although that's riskier and tougher to do. For now the medication is holding me steady and I'll talk to some local people to help me wrap my head around needing a pill every day for the rest of my life.
1) Is this your way of saying you are stabile and out of the hospital?
2) Wrapping your head around needing a pill every day? Dude, it is so not a problem. Hope you don't tussle with the idea long.

@Solfy . . . ok, the idea of grading fewer ghastly papers is tempting *shakes self* but the group project thing is mostly designed to get the students to learn more by helping each other. If class is not huge we usually figure out who is doing what. I do suggest telling your prof that you are frustrated by Chaz' lack of contribution and empty promises (which are worse), which the remaining team members attempted to fill in for work Chaz did not provide. You might ask not to be paired with him again.
