My 29 Lives

In July 2007 I had a heart attack with cardiac arrest that required 29 cardioversions/resuscitations and resulted in three stents for a 100% blocked right coronary artery and a triple bypass for blockages on the left side. I HAD NO PAIN OR CLASSIC SYMPTOMS and later found out that this is not uncommon for diabetics. It is this message that I want to promote in this blog plus my recovery process including lifestyle changes and my dealing with denial, depression, anxiety and ongoing health issues.

Joe Bugner has a Heart Attack

The other day I read about former Australian, British, Commonwealth and European heavyweight boxing champion Joe Bugner having a heart attack whilst walking not far from where he lives here on the Gold Coast. You can read an article about this here: http://www.boxingnewsonline.net/joe-bugner-is-recovering-in-hospital-after-suffering-a-heart-attack/

Earlier this year Evelyn and I had the privilege of meeting Joe at his book launch and he was kind enough to clown around with us.

We wish you a speedy recovery and know the great people at Gold Coast University Hospital will take good care of you and get you fit and ready to 'fight' real soon.

Maybe I will see you at our local cardiac rehab unit on Nov. 06 when I give my next talk!
