                           SUMMARY OF TALK
She talked on advanced age, family history, male gender, high cholesterol
and no smoking. Also, dying of heart disease is much more likely than
dying from breast cancer. Timing is most important, try to get to
Cardiologist in 24 hours of what believe is a heart attack. Sometimes,
indigestion and fatigue are confused with heart attack. Dentists sometimes
recognize a heart attack in time to save a life.
