General Discussion

I'll fess up... I'm that guy that had the chest pains for a week--but thought I pulled a muscle. (mind you, at the time I was running a "medically fragile" classroom with not one, but TWO full time nurses. I'd been building a rock wall with the biggest rocks I could pick up and thought I'd pulled a muscle. They had checked me out-bp good, heart monitor, pulled muscle made sense and, it came and went and was on the right side, way over under my collar bone. Oops

Finally, on Friday, the last day of school, I threw in the towel and was driving to the ER when I got walloped, on the freeway, alone, doing 70, with a widow maker. I coasted into the ER, on my extra-golden minute, I guess.

That was in 2012. I'm still glad to be here.
