Does this mean that the sale is cancelled? Durn.

I wish you the best.

And thanks to all the paramedics out there... you guys saved my dad twice.

Glad you beat the widow maker. This was an eye opener. Think I might take a class on how to detect a heart attack. The first one got my dad many years back at a fairly young age, 66. I have to live to a 150 to finish all my kits.

Glad you made it through - especially that aftershock.  It is so strange that all the "education" of what to look for and how it feels means very little when it actually happens.  What saved me was my wife had helped her father through many heart attacks and knew exactly what was happening with me even though my signs were way out of wack.  While I have seen a few articles that get away from the "pain in the left arm" stuff they are not well advertised or read.  And with a lot of potential victims on these boards stories like yours are heartening and educational.

May your second one be your last - they just are not as fun as flying!

Just remember that they give you nitro for heart pain. That sounds like more flying is just what the Dr. ordered. Great to see your doing better.

Great to hear your back Gene.


After my triple bypass 4 years ago, I built an Astro Hog.

Those ARF's are bad for your Health,

Get well,

Bob

Hi Gene,

Great to see you're on the road to recovery. Growing old isn't much fun but it sure beats the alternative

All the best,

Colin

Glad you're home Gene. Now rest - for at least a while, eh?
My mother was an operating room nurse and she aways said that health professionals make the WORST patients, so we all have an eye on you!

P.S. I'm not the superstitious type, but I'm going to heed the Great Powers of the Building Board! No ARFs for me!
