He had a massive heart attack that day and left us.

So tell your son this is a case where more is not better and slow recovery would be the goal.

My old man crapped out from a heart attack at 45 and my mother did the same thing at 53. So that's an average of 49 years.

Right now I'm 66. That means I've had my 49 years plus 17 of someone elses, maybe yours.

At any rate, the way I see it, if I hit the floor like a sack of wet cement before my next keystoke, I still go out a winner.

Every tick of the clock from here on out is gravy.

Thats how I feel lol.

Dam you lost both parents very early in life thats hard. Since my dad died young than I wasn't ready for or aware of finality. I totally dove into having a relationship with my mom. Not just the yearly normal points of get togethers.
Then I ended up taking care of her for many years till her death. I was able to give her what I could not do for my dad 25 years earlier. Or I should say give me, the adult relationship as not only a parent child but friends.

I thought the Bible gave us three score and ten so I am up +13 and aiming for more, and I am not taking them from someone else actuaries be damned. Of course the Good Book never expected Big Macs and such.

Dad was in his 81st year and Mom in her 91st. My sole surviving sibling is my 89 year old sister.

Agree wholeheartedly.

A good start would be to make health insurance payments tax deductible or a taxable benefit if paid for by employers.

Dad was 91 and Mom 84.

Rushed him to the Ottawa Heart Institue (Noted for work on the Jarvik Heart) where they shocked him back to normal (It had been running at 250BPM.)

They have run a whole battery of tests on him and so far only found some bits during the Electrophisiological Study which they cauterized. Now all that remains is to do an angiogram on Tuesday - apparently the 17th is now a holiday up north. So there you have that terrible soci@list system and the joy of it is that it is not costing him a dime. The outcome of the angiogram could mean nothing need be done, insert a stent or open heart surgery. We know what we are praying for.

My prayers for your son.

If the GOP a few months back were Terrorist and Hostage Takers.

All for wanting to extend Obamacare a year so all the problems can be fixed. Allowing a smoother transition for the economy and business. Trying to put it to vote legally though congress to the point of a filibuster.

Fast forward a few months.

Obama is now what?
