Well, I’ve been offline for a few days.

Monday morning I went to the gym per usual, came home, showered, and was driving over to a friends house. About halfway there I started feeling terrible but was able to get to her house which was not far away.

She rushed me to our local ED which by the time we got there I was having a full blown heart attack. After getting me stable AirCare cam and flew me to Atrium Health in Winston. They put in a stint that afternoon. Echo shows some damage that may or may not be repairable but will not know for 30 to 40 days. Needless to say I was in total shock, never dreaming it could happen to me.

Got home late this afternoon. So, lots of meds, rehab, and recovery over the next months but thankful to be here.
