On September 28th 2007, Friday, I was busy being in an official audit team at Kochi. Early morning my husband boarded on a train to Kochi with a kind message 'don't rush back, because it will be late and will be difficult for you and me. Stay back and we can meet on Saturday evening' that is after my regular work from Trivandrum.
Things went unexpected. (My husband was having some slight uneasiness in breathing and heaviness in his chest for the last three days, which was told to us later.) In the evening, he thought to visit his nephew, a physician, in his clinic who lives 2 miles away. He took ECG and found nothing wrong. He called over phone his friend a cardiologist, works in District hospital and went for an expert opinion. Luckily, I should say, he is out of station for the next three days and he said, 'if your uncle can come today I will be here.' My husband went on his own, without any information to any one of us. My son, a junior doctor, got a phone call from our relative doctor, shocking us with the information that my husband is in the cardiac ICU. Tests went very fast, and next morning found he got three blocks. Since our home is in Kochi, and our son is practising in Kochi, we decided to transfer him to Kochi. After arguments and written agreement only, they allowed him to transfer to Kochi. We got a mobile team of health experts along with our son in the ambulance and with 21/2 hours it reached destination at 90 miles. Angiogram revealed the blocks. One was a 'T' block which requires surgery. Decided open heart on surgery on Oct 3rd. By the grace of the 'Almighty' everything went well and we are here happy with a strong heart.
It is our duty to care our heart with kindness. Go for a 'Heart healthy Lifestyle'.
When you are open minded and able to express your emotions whole heartedly means your heart is stress free and healthy. If you are lacking the skill of expression, your heart is in the stage of a flower bud and needs a surgeon to open it up. Practice openness to fuel you heart with power of strength, love, kindness, peace, purity and compassion.It is also our duty to take part in the awareness programmes on 'World Heart Day' to encourage and support humankind to take action self, in family, in society and in the Universe. Do your exercises daily, walk a mile daily to health, include lots of vegetables and fruits in your diet to eat healthy, avoid alcohols, drugs, smoking, stay away from salty, fatty, fried and sweet foods, avoid stress of any kind and live in tune with the environment to stay happy and in harmony.We can easily help the people around to live with healthy hearts by taking care of our heart and taking care of others reduce the intensity and burden of Cardio Vascular Diseases (CVD) and the unexpected and premature death due to CVD.
