A healthier brother

Somehow, Dan was able to go home Saturday, just a couple days after experiencing a heart attack.

He's much healthier now, thanks to the stent in his lower doohickey artery, or whatever it's called, that was fully blocked before.

Dan even sent me some images of his heart, before and after the near-fatal event.

The first image is the clogged heart and the second is the new, improved Dan Kohn Heart.

We have our father and his legacy of heart problems to thank. But that's OK. It could be worse.

Dan said he's feeling much better than he was last week soon after arriving to work one morning. He said he was surprised because the pain wasn't quite as bad as he thought a heart attack would feel.

I guess no one really knows what to expect.

Let's hope most of us never find out.
