"Years of exercise and 5-mile marathons didn't stop a nearly fatal heart attack at the age of 54. But thanks to the Lord, a healthy lifestyle and the team of experts at Osceola Hospital's Heart and Vascular Institute and Hunter's Creek ER, I am back to working out, enjoying time with my family and spreading the word about heart disease. It can happen to anyone!"
