Think you're tough? Think again. It's not about gender. Let's discuss us men. [View all]

Men have heart attacks. It's not pretty. Sometimes you die. Sometimes you survive and your world changes. Sometimes it's genetic and sometimes it's behavior, but when it happens it will be the scariest thing you ever had happen to you. You have no control over it. Having your butt wiped by someone else is a revelation.

Stress. Eating habits. Exercise or lack thereof. Life patterns. Genetics. Spend weeks "tied" up after it assaults you, if you survive. Think you're mad now?? You got two choices in that respect. Mad or not.

Ask me anything. Healthcare. Behavior. What to look for.

I am rebounding from a major, call it a widow maker. I am still getting strength back. I am looking at all the things that brought me to this point. It's a change of life, but I only got here (survive) because of friends and because of family.

A couple setbacks later and I think it's time to stand up again. Albeit, when I can.
