But we had hubs get a battery of tests (they didn't test his heart as that is more invasive) although gave him meds for high cholesterol. He is slim, and we walk a lot, but a cardiac arrest can happen simply from loose plaque, which it did, in the middle of the night. We do have to pay attention to our family health history. Hub is recuperating now in a hospital facility. That was the scariest night of my life. <br />Thanks for sharing your scary time, too.D.G.

SO I know I am predestined for it. My father's mother also died from it at age 47. <br /><br />But I watch it and keep my weight down eating right an exercising. But sometimes that isn't enough. WE must pay attention to our bodies and go for testing yearly.<br /><br />Thanks for participating in the hop!!!!Michael Di Gesuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17047267262428143113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5575209851731621303.post-35532565877805960152014-10-20T12:35:28.026-04:002014-10-20T12:35:28.026-04:00I can't imagine how scary that had to have bee...I can't imagine how scary that had to have been for you. Diabetes is a terrible disease and it seems to just suddenly appear. We all take our good health for granted until we don't have it.
