I have heart disease and it knows no age. And diabetics (which I am not) are prone to it as are people with high stress in their life (which I am.)

Many folx do not know they have it because maby times there are no symptoms or the symptoms are common of other ailments.

I found out after spending the last two weeks with my Mother in her transition and one day suffered severe heartburn. Although it was determined that I did have an attack of angina and not a heart attack, the tests did show blockage in one of my arteries, so they inserted stents to keep them open.

But if I had not suffered the angina brought on by the stress of my Mother's death, I would not have known about the blockage because I had previously had no symptoms.

I will be wearing red on Friday.
