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

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.
