ANNOUNCMENT ON HEART DISEASE TO ALL MY FELLOWS OUT THERE

HI, EVERYBODY OUT THERE IN INTERNET LAND. I woke up this morning and within 30 minutes proceeded to have MY NINTH HEART ATTACK in the last 15 years and that muther lasted 2 hours. I'm posting this because I started smoking cigarette's when I was 15 years old and I was just diagnosed with coronary artery disease last year.
I guess because I have always been physically fit and active the doctors did not consider it the last few times I went to the ER for chest pain and shortness of breath. OH WELL f--cked know.

MY MAIN POINT IS TO WARN AND CAUTION ALL MY BROTHER'S AND SISTER'S OUT THERE.....................QUIT SMOKING OR CUT BACK AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE BEFORE ITS
TO LATE!

I'm 39 years with a strong heart but my arteries are FUBAR, and unfortunately I started to contemplate my mortality. kinda sucks to think I might leave this world at a young age...FOR WHAT? A CIGARETTE. but it is a fact that I have to consider and I WANT TO SHARE MY MISFORTUNE WITH YOU IN HOPES THAT YOU MIGHT CONSIDER YOUR HEALTH AND WELL BEING.

IF I KNEW THEN WHAT I KNOW NOW, I WOULD HAVE QUIT A LONG TIME AGO
SO WHY DON'T YOU? .......There are a lot more side effects associated to my situation but I won't get into that because I don't want anyone thinking I'm looking for pity................
I WANT YOU TO LIVE!

LOVE AND RESPECT TO ALL OF YOU OUT THERE.






We Never think it could happen to us.....till one day its you that it happened too.

Sorry to hear that. Smoking ultimately caused my grandfather's demise. I still think of him whenever I smell pipe tobacco. Wishing you a speedy recovery.

Man, that's rough. I have a life threatening disease too (Ulcerative Colitis). Family and friends always warned me about eating right, now I'm eating sh** for not listening.

This post makes me not want to sell cigarettes anymore. I've been doing it for eight years and have watched people just ruin their lives (and if I have to refuse a sale for any reason, they swear at me and throw things). And believe me, I look for any reason not to sell a pack of cigarettes. I hate that they're legal when they're clearly a leading cause of death.

Hope you get better and live long enough to make a difference with your art,

-Don

I've been smoking for 15 years by now and have tried several times to quit. I'm preparing myself to quit definitely after the Christmas festivities and reading your post increased my determination. Thanks to share that with us. I'll be thinking of you on harsh times.

kriz said...

@DC.WOW..sorry to hear it, of course I urge you to eat healthy. you will be in my prayer's bro.

@Bartender. Sorry for your loss my
friend, and thank you.

Have a wonderful Christmas all of you.
