Not at all unusual for a fatal heart attack in your 40s. Heart attacks and cardiac arrests can happen at any age. And despite the lurid details of Michael Jackson's cardiac arrest, you can have a cardiac arrest or attack even if you appear to be healthy.

Since we've had this cold and snowy weather, locally we've had quite a few heart attack deaths — shoveling snow or even just being outside in the cold for too long. That's why it's a good idea to heed all that medical advice and be careful.

I had a friend who had a heart attack at 28 and remember someone who had one earlier than that after a nasty round of pneumonia & hospitalization.

You must admit, however, that the ‘timing’ is very good if not excellent.

Personally, I have been wondering when people will start dying, as in, honestly, really dying, when things heat up around this administration. The deaths of the top CIA echelon in Afghanistan is, after all, rather far away.

Prayers for her family and friends.
