*hugs*

She'd just turned 65 a couple of months before. She went to her doctor for a routine blood check and they found a protein marker in her blood that indicated a heart attack, so they immediately called an ambulance. She felt okay, she said, but she did have heart racing late at night and couldn't really sleep. They later told us that there was a blockage in one of her veins that resulted in a heart attack, but that it had resolved itself on its own, leaving just the protein marker as an indication. They did a check to see if anything else was blocked and she spent about a week in hospital, but that was it. She's fine now. *knock on wood* Before this I didn't even know there were different types of heart attack, or that heart attacks in women often look different than they do in men.

Woah, amputation is a big thing. Not something people do lightly, so no wonder everyone was worried about that.
