I've jogged and worked out for 18 years. It kept getting harder. Sunday morning June 23, I woke up with chest pain and out of breath.
Wife drove me to nearest hospital, where they dithered for 15 or 20 minutes before agreeing to give me nitro. Then got ambulance ride to a real hospital.
Long story includes quadruple bypass and membership in the heart attack survivors club.
Doctor says the rest of my carcass is in good shape--only the coronary arteries were bad. He says that in 3 months, I can do anything I want, including shoot a bow, a shotgun and use a chainsaw.
I know several of you have walked this path and said it is years before a bypass survivor can do those things. I'm going to take that as a challenge. When the doctor says all is healed, I plan to jump back into those things.
I'd appreciate your prayers. Would have gone home from H today, but potassium level not stable.
Feel pretty good and am walking the halls and doing stairs.
Onward and upward. Now need to find out why God left me here. Have complete confidence it was not to make and shoot bows or guns. Keep your accounts with God very short. You have no idea how much time you have.
