so, contemplate this, boys and girls.
an attorney from my work was being driven to the airport by his wife sunday (YES, father's day) when he started complaining of chest and arm pain. she suggested going to the hospital, but he declined (didn't want to miss that flight, I would guess). a few minutes after she dropped him off, he collapsed and died from a massive heart attack. he was a month away from his 62nd birthday.
it is devastating to me to know that this gentleman (and he was a gentleman, in EVERY sense of the word) possibly had the opportunity to live, had he only understood what his body was trying to tell him.
makes you stop and think, yo.
I have arm and chest pain all the time. And I always think I am in need of a hospital. Urgh... So sorry to hear about your friend.
thanks.
