Bam Heart Attack

He thought his life was going well
Then BAM
Heart attack
I am dying he thought
But he didn’t.
When he woke up in the hospital he realized something
He was ready to really live
This was a new fresh chance
He began to do dangerous things
He went bungee jumping and sky diving
He has never been this reckless! His wife told others.
She did not understand it
Until BAM
She had her own heart attack

L Milton Hankins April 7, 2022 at 7:30 AM Yes, you can't really understand a heart attack until you've had one or lived with someone who had one. Deb always said she would write her doctoral thesis on how my heart attack changed me. I didn't realize it, but she did. Apparently, it changes everyone rather dramatically.
