The paramedic and his angina

The Urban Paramedic went out for a training run before the Boston Marathon. The pain started a half mile in. He was short of breath. He ignored it. He went out again. Ignored it again. Three weeks later, he ran the Marathon.

Then he saw a cardiologist.

Fortunately, the balloon catheterization worked. So now he can write a book about EMS - which unfortunately means no more blog posts.

Glad he's OK. It's also

Glad he's OK.

It's also encouraging to hear that he was able to bounce back like that, in a it-could-happen-to-me kinda way.

Too bad about the blog wrapping up. His was about the only blog I enjoyed reading, and I actually learned some things.
