one of my favorite blogging friends, suffered and survived a heart attack last week.

there is no doubt,

that he and his family are happy and relieved,

that he has been given a second chance at life...........

this has brought back scary memories for me,

of my own husband's quadruple bi-pass,

of five years ago this month.......and his (our) own second chance.

mm

keep your heart healthy

and

always full of

love.
