Bullet Proof I think Not!

[CINDERS]

Guys we all know we think we are bullet proof and things cannot touch us well at least I thought that. Turns out we are just the same as all out there and my whole world changed at 14:30 Sunday 13th Sept yeah I know the 13th..............However I am thankful for a couple of things (A) My wife for convincing me after nagging me for 2 hours to go to the hospital (B) The Bunbury E.D (C) The Royal Flying Doctor Service lastly the staff at the CCU at Fiona Stanley in Perth. On the day at home I felt really unwell sat down after a m/cycle run ate a sandwich and then I was really crushed by intense chest pain and jaw ache. Yeah you guessed it I was in the middle of a heart attack when my wife came in from SES training. Come on we gotta go! naaah! I'll be good give us a moment, okay okay we better go. I now rattle from all the pills I have to take for the rest of my life and have a stent in my ventricular artery (I think they said) which was 99% ocluded so I am very lucky to still be vertical. In 1990 I lost my elder brother to a H/A he was only 43. Don't think you can push these things aside chaps they soon make you stand up and take notice and its pretty selfish on the family if you go wheels up and leave a train wreck behind, won't worry you as you are dead but what of the grief and heartache on your loved ones. My whole life is now a different kaliedescope of which I am going to try and have less stress in it and devote more time to those I love. Only thing I gotta do now is not tear where the stent went through from the femoral artery now that would be terminal.
