This blog is about my personal journey from heart attack to surgery and recovery. By no means is this blog to be used for medical advice. Consult your physician, cardiologist and medical services facility for help, diagnosis and care. Online you can visit
Web MD for general information. If you are experiencing a medical emergency such as a heart attack, chest pain, shortness of breath or anything out of the ordinary,
CALL 911! (Works in most places in the U.S.A.)
The scope of the blog is being expanded to cover more than heart and health issues. Posts will also include lifestyle, personal, family and some photographic content. Heart health issues will still be the central focus.

Video: 10 Foods That Are Slowly Killing You
It’s tough to avoid some of these foods that most people love.
The ones I don’t do: Soda (stopped since about 2011); potato chips and french fries; hot dogs; canned tomato sauce and paste (stopped since I don’t do spaghetti which I love); salt; and most white bread. I have cut back on salad dressing (used very lightly once in a while); white rice (eat mostly brown and overall don’t do rice on a regular basis) and others…. Hard but attainable. The key is to be consistent and not “fall off the wagon”.
