In this episode I talk about Bruce Paterson who was married to a high school friend of mine. Bruce and Karen were avid cyclists and like me Bruce had a passion for playing ice hockey. Sadly, Bruce was taken from us too early when he suffered a massive heart attack while training on his bike in the basement of his home in Port Hope, Ontario, Canada
Bruce’s passing has hit me hard as our stories are similar and Bruce should still be alive.
Cardiovascular Dis-Ease is the #1 Killer of men and women worldwide running away from all other causes of death.
This podcast is a reminder to take your life and your health and well being seriously. Get checked out, get your blood work done, know the signs and symptoms and know your family history!!
