A New Heart, A New Life, A New Love. I got engaged Friday in Vail, Colorado at 11,000 feet. It was a beautiful and picture perfect day. We took the gondola to the top of the mountain and walked over to the Wedding Deck. After waiting for the Wedding party that was up there to clear the deck, I could no longer stall. We walked over hand in hand; I took a deep breath, dropped to one knee, … [Read more...]

I submitted this to the Denver Post as a "Letter to the Editor". Recently, a study ranked Colorado as the least obese state with 19.8% of adults considered obese. Don’t celebrate just yet. Just 16 years ago a rate of 19.8% would have ranked Colorado as the worst or most obese state. With Colorado’s childhood obesity rate at 14.2%, and growing there are 22 states with lower childhood … [Read more...]

This is the plate from my old 1996 Harley. Maybe the plate I picked out 10 years earlier meant something for the future. Today we had the kick-off party for the Las Vegas Heart Walk. It was a great event. I met other survivors and heard many stories on getting a Second Chance. What 2nd Chance did you get? “For me, after a Heart Attack, it was another shot at this thing called life” … [Read more...]
