Fw: How to Survive a Heart Attack Alone

[John Baird]

I am all for getting useful information, but also agree that we need to
police ourselves as regards off topic posting to the list.

The main point of the link that Andy included, is that the How to Survive a
Heart Attack Alone email is misinformation:

"...the medical information listed in the article can not be verified by
current medical literature and is in no way condoned by this hospital's
medical staff. Also, both The Mended Hearts, Inc., a support organization
for heart patients, and the American Heart Association have said that this
information should not be forwarded or used by anyone.

"Please help us combat the proliferation of this misinformation."

Regards all,

John Baird
