Actually read some on this today and sometimes it can be sudden even with regular checkups because the plaque in the arteries can just break off the lining and start causing blockages.

One of the reporters on MSNBC was talking about what medication bubba has been on and he mentioned Plavix which means that he has known for a while that he has blockage.

That is strange. Maybe they were hoping the could solve it without cutting him open. One of the doctors on MSNBC said there has to be more than one or they would not operate and would do an angioplasty.

My Dad just went through it and they did a double quadruple bypass on him. I don't care what anybody says it is a huge deal. Afterwards though, people can feel decades younger. Amazing stuff.
