My Uncle Leo who lives in Wyoming went to a Salt Lake City Hospital this last weekend for problems with his heart. They sent him home and he was awaiting some test results which ended up showing that he had an Angina. Well this moring I was awoken by a phone call from my mom that said he was taken back to Salt Lake city by ambulance late last night/early this morning and that he was having more problems with his heart. I am very nervous cause I have always looked up to him and he has struggled in his life with drinking but, he is one the top salesman in the country for AXA Financial and made it Regional manager with a client base of 2500+ families. Then about 11 months ago he was diagnosed with skin cancer and fought that off. It's like geez how much more for him. He has always been there for all of us and is a great example of someone who came from nothing and didn't even go to college but, then became sucessfull in what he did. I almost came to tears today and I dread any phone call from my family that I get. I hope that they can figure out what is going on and he will be ok. He is only in is late 40's ... ok thanks for listening everyone.

Nathan - you got it, praying already for your Uncle Leo. Late 40s is young, you're right but perhaps he'll have more strength and resolve to get better, than someone much older?

Wow! He's so young!
Marty owns his own business as a sales representative for hospitality products. I know how stressful being in sales can be for him, but he's also a natural. I worry about him sometimes though.
I do hope that they are able to get him stabilized and find out what is going on. He may need to slow down after this. Prayers are on their way from NJ!

If it's Angina then a bypass operation may be needed. BTW although being in the 40's seems young, it's not too young for heart problems. My daughter's husband died from a heart attack at age 39.
