Take care of your ticker.

Two cases hitting close to home.

I recently moved my IRA investments to a guy I bowl with on Tuesday. Real nice guy about 39 years old. He had a heart attack last Wednesday. He will survive but has to make a lot of life changes.

A man I go to church with who I considered to be a friend although we were not real close. He was very well loved by the entire church. He had a beautiful voice. He dropped dead of a massive heart attack yesterday afternoon. He was about 44. He leaves behind his wife and two teenage daughters. He was a building contractor and the last few years had basically closed his business and he and his wife were working very hard at other jobs. I can only assume the stress got him.

I need to heed my own advice and take better care of myself too.

Sobering thoughts. This reminds me to get back into the gym - I'd closed my membership in a move back south and haven't been for over a month. You can certainly feel the difference in body well being after not having been.

Wow Fred, were these guys way overweight, heavy smokers, both or what. Does seem awfully young.

Neither were obese or heavy smokers or drinkers.

Lifestyle changes and diet changes are very important to cardiac health. Had more than a few attacks myself. Exercise helps also.
