Widowmaker Jan6 2017
Well....it happened. On Jan 6th 2017 I suffered my first Heart Attack. LAD 90% blocked. I am 54 years old, ironicly the same age my brother passed away from his first heart attack. My father also passed away from his 3rd heart attack at 62 years old. A close friend told me it was almost like I was waiting for it to happen as I had always thought due to family history I would never grow old. Now that I have had my heart attack and survived unlike my brother and father, my friend said..."Well, it happened,you survived..now maybe you can get back to living your life and put those thoughts behind you." Great advise! I spent the last two week having a bit of a pitty party, questioning why me, what now, what next. Well, first of all I stopped the pitty party. I am so incredibly fortuneate that I survied realitively unscathed. I have wonderful friends and a wonderful life compaired to so many. I am signed up for 12 weeks of re-hab that will help me get back in the game. I am looking forward to the new me, the guy who got the second chance.
