About Me (In My Own Words)
hello survivors I’ll try to be brief, I was a 56-year-old ITALIAN male , very athletic but rather hard partying , la ight smoker , I never had any heart issues and then I developed a pain in my jaw that wouldn’t go away. A trip to the Dentist , a visit to the ear nose and throat doctor and then the inevitable stress test. You could’ve knocked me over with a feather , when they told me I needed to go in for heart surgery !!! WTF !!!???? right then and there. I couldn’t believe it . So I got a second opinion and it was inevitable , I needed open heart surgery , and not just bypass or double , triple or even quadruple !! but quintuple !!!! can you believe it !!! and I felt fine!!! With the exception of the pain in my jaw !!! I was never more concerned about dying . Going in for surgery I knew THE GOOD LORD would never take me from my children OR my family AT such a young age. It was Psalm 23 that got me through the surgery , anyways fast forward three years later , I’m working out all the time , I still have my cocktails , I’m not the least bit concerned about dying , I’m just living my life to the fullest , but I did quit smoking immediately and I do exercise all the time , and I try and eat right now , even though I like to blow it every now and then !!! and I do like to drink in fact a recent study stated two cocktails at night Is beneficial for open-heart patients !!! anyways that’s my story , IM BLESSED THEY CAUGHT IT EARLY As my widow maker was almost completely closed !!! GOD BLESS us all , work out every chance you get PEOPLE and live life to the fullest !!!! Give thanks and praise to the Lord above for giving you a second chance & Viva Italia !!!!
