Yet another reason why my chances (for survival) look good for the Trans-Iowa Part X
Pre Trans-Iowa positive
thought of the day…or ”puttin’ a positive spin on seemingly a hopeless situation.”
Obese Heart Attack Patients Are More Likely To Survive
After Treatment Than Normal Weight Patients
Date: June 22, 2007
Oxford University Press
Summary: Obese and very obese patients have a lower risk
of dying after they have been treated for heart attacks than do normal weight
patients, according to new research. Researchers found that amongst patients
who had received initial treatment for a specific type of heart attack, those
that were obese or very obese were less than half as likely to die during the
following three years as patients who had a normal body mass index.
This is good news for me as I prepare for the
upcoming trans-Iowa….

I feel like we have not seen each other for a very long time. I have sprained my ankle, was using a cane, can no longer tolerate coffee, am graying, and all those rides in the winter have become my daily torment as all my joints hurt. Maybe we can dance together for a while in the next upcoming Trans Iowa. That should be like a shot of cortisone for us old Fartz.
