Happy Thanksgiving. Just like the colonial survivors in Jamestown, we've survived another year and live to fight on.
A local shooter and match organizer, Tony Yeltman, posted today that two weeks ago he was admitted to the hospital for bypass surgery. Complete surprise to him because he works out regularly, has a low BMI, low cholesterol, etc. And he didn't have traditional symptoms of a myocardial infarction, just sudden shortness of breath. No chest pains, no tingling or loss of feeling on the left side.
HERE'S THE PSA: If you feel something, anything irregular about your cardio-vascular system CALL 911 immediately.
A negative example: A ham radio friend had massive chest pains and rather than call 911 went and sat in his easy chair where he proceeded to have a second attack and died. Had he called 911 right away, he might still be with us.
