HEART ATTACK ? I've been out of sorts the last couple of months, couldn't really put my finger on it, just not the normal me. Focus has been off, I tire easily, napping on the weekend, this isn't regular me. Well, twelve days ago, I had a heart attack. WTF ? There, I said it, " I HAD A HEART ATTACK "!
I get up like any other Saturday, have a little something to eat and do my normal morning stuff, bank run, post office, and all the rest average chores. My son calls to ask if I'll run him to get his keys which he left in his wife's car, sure no problem. Well between the time I picked him up and we get to where we're going, I begin to become very uncomfortable. Not screaming pain, just a different sensation in my abdomen, like maybe breakfast wasn't agreeing with me. This lasts for twenty or thirty minutes and then starts to become very uncomfortable, I begin pouring sweat, I pull into a gas station and have him drive me to the e.r. By now I've convinced myself, food poisoning right ? Nope, after two or three ekg's and a trip through the ct scan machine, the nice young lady comes into the room and sticks a nitro pill under my tongue while telling me " You're in the process of having a heart attack." I don't panic or freak out, it's kind of been expected. Not really surprising our family history simply leans towards heart disease. To make the whole story shorter, they put three stints in me with plans to put two more in later. Which brings us to today, I'm ALIVE, going to get this situation remedied asap. I still have so much more to do.
