In 1982 when I had a Heart Attack,

I didn't think I would be sat here on my 75th Birthday posting on the BHF web site, so never give up folks. I hope to post in 2047 when I get my card from HM the King. !!!

Regards

Dear Pauline

your posts gave me so much courage when I had AVR.

Now I find you are one of the young ones.

Wasn’t that a Cliff Richard film, possibly in the 60s ?

I did like that film. London bus, good colour filming, what more could I wish for

It certainly was a film in the 60s! My first job was in 64 in Liverpool spent my lunch times in the Caven Club Mum and Dad didn’t know! Oh what days!

So did I. Those lunch time sessions were great, it’s where I first met the Beatles.

What a great gift life is and how much more we appreciate it after our 'event'. Thank you for your encouragement and I hope like me, you really want a "well done good and faithful servant" from the King of Kings rather than just the splendid letter from an earthly monarch. Encouragement is so important. Thank you an happy birthday!

Know what you mean, I had my Heart attack in 1988, I was 39 (told that a quarter of my heart was no longer functioning), all these years later, have accumulated various other health issues along the way, I wake each day thankful that I am still here.

This post gave me so much hope! I am only 48 and had a heart attack 2 weeks ago, completely out of the blue (non-smoker, not overweight, leading very active lifestyle). I am still in shock and disbelief, but seeing your post made me feel very hopeful and positive. Happy Birthday and hope to hear from you on your 100th anniversary!!

Warm Regards, Natalia
