Number One Killer Of Men

Imagine...just for a moment

You are at work, head down in that all-important project your boss requested you to finish.

The phone on your desk rings. You put down your pen.

Picking up the phone; you hear your neighbor's voice on the other end.

You think, "this is strange" she NEVER calls me at work."

In a broken, nervous voice she says in a panic". Your dad had a heart attack. You need to come to the hospital.

Right NOW.

The blood drains from your face. You start to shake.

A bead of sweat rolls off your forehead, slowly falling to the tabletop below.

You say to yourself, "This can�t be happening. "He was in great shape".

You catch yourself. Why did I just say that?

What you meant to say was "He IS in great shape".

Your mind wanders.

"How, When, Where?"

The rest is a blur!

You don't remember the drive to the hospital.

You enter the lobby. Down the long hallway in the distance, you see what looks like a doctor walking toward you.

His look is one you�ll never forget.

Hi,

Have you seen it?

It's all over the news today.

There is no way it could have slipped by you.

It's been in newspapers, on TV, radio, and in magazines.

It's the number one killer of men (and has been for years).

Now, it's the number one killer of women.

It is really scary to think that someone YOU know Or THEY know has had this happen to them.

Think for a moment: Do you know someone who is headed for a heart attack? They are very easy to spot. Their faces are red from anger. They have a tendency to be short- tempered.

How about when they get behind the wheel of their car?

Do they have road rage when someone cuts them off on the highway?

Imagine your friends, loved ones, or co-workers.

Is any one of them ready to "go Postal" in your work place?

How about when you all are standing around the water cooler? Have you heard of someone who is "freak'n out far to often?

If you know anyone that might be "boiling" just below the surface, and is displaying the above traits, then you could be doing them a great (and possibly a life-saving service), by giving them the gift of "Heart Attack Survivor, a field guide".

In times like these, it's no time to be embarrassed.

What Rear Admiral Grace Murray Hopper said holds true today.

"It's much easier to apologize than it is to get permission".

If you feel so inclined, and know of someone that might benefit from learning techniques for lowering their stress levels, and possibly avoiding a heart attack, then please forward this email to them.

Readers that have praised this book:

Dick Butkus, NFL Hall of Famer and Chicago Bear Legend has graciously said about "Heart Attack Survivor.

"I picked up your book at Steve Thomas BMW last Thurs. Friday I had a flight from LAX to Pittsburgh and I couldn't put the book down the whole trip! So much of the "stuff" one goes thru after an attack or even the 5-way bypass I experienced was dealt with in a very thought provoking manner. It is Sunday night and I have tried a few of the suggestions and can honestly say that there has been a change in my attitude in two short days. I have roughly 787 marbles to go!

Thank you for reminding me to make them all count".

Dr. Richard Carlson, Author of "Don't sweat the small stuff"

"Practical, helpful, and full of great life-affirming advice. Anyone with a heart, healthy or not, will enjoy this book!"

Ira Lovitch from Los Angeles.

"Like Chicken Soup for the Soul, Only Tastier!"

Candy Finn of Ventura

"I only wish there had been a book like this when my dad had his heart attack".

Just imagine life without your family, friends and/or Your co-workers
