Mine felt like a bite of hot chili I couldn't swallow- - - - -none of the classic "chest pain- - - -left arm weakness- - - -etc." I ignored the symptoms the first time around, and waited a couple of hours before finally going to an ER when the second one happened. They had me on the operating table implanting a stent about half an hour from the time I walked into the door, after taking one look at an EKG.

If I don't get my blood pressure meds I might stroke out by the end of the day, been running 160-170 over 105- 110 since 4 this morning. Computers down at Walgreens. Don't run out!

Sounds like a good reason for an ER visit- - - - -spiky BP isn't something to mess around with.

Trust Jesus Christ to save your soul from Hell. I made that decisioin 40 years ago and have never looked back. No worries about the future --eternity in heaven with the one who shed his blood to save me.
AMEN! Amen!

I should have been dead about 25 times by now. Every day is gravy.
Don't fire unless fired upon. But if they want a war let it begin here.

The bad news is I'm 80 years old. The good news is it's too late for me to die young.

i had a doctor appointment and one of the question i asked was when will i die. we sat down together and used a calculator to predict my demise. according to https://depts.washington.edu/shfm/app.php?width=1536&height=864in 5 years my probability of dying goes to 85% (which means 100%) , how about you and what am i supposed to do? Maybe you and Wabigoon could have a contest to see who starts the most benign threads…

I'm approaching middle age. Scientists say we can live to 120. My great-grandmother made a 114. Now those are some good genes. Ya just can't out run your genetics. DF

in 5 years my probability of dying goes to 85% (which means 100%) , how about you and what am i supposed to do? I'd start by getting a new doctor!
Biden's most truthful quote ever came during his first press conference, 03/25/21. Drum roll please...... "I don't know, to be clear." and THAT is one promise he's kept!!!

My Dr told me 4 years ago I'd likely not see 50. I'll see it in December and feel like I have more in me. I've got to stay around because I got a late start and have young kids.

The clock is wound a fellow told me in 1973. That being said it takes a lot of will power to change our habits to hopefully live longer. I went to the cardiologist 3 weeks ago. I’m determined to be 25 pounds lighter at the next exam in December.

Bb Like the tale, "Bubba where ya going in such a hurry". "I'm gonna go pizz on the grave of that doctor who told me I just had 6 months to live". Sorta tells the story. DF

The matter of impending death, and especially the idea of a loved one dying relatively young, was once a fuzzy and distant scene. A year ago this week we experienced the full force of that reality. Even a broad and seasoned perspective can change so suddenly.
Every day is a gift to be used wisely.
