Yesterday Sandra and I were canvassing in Lehighton on Bankway and South First. I was puffing as we walked up the hill, and Sandra asked, “You aren’t going to have a heart attack, are you?”
I told her, “If I do, I want you to tell everyone that my last words were ‘Vote for Obama.’”
Today we were canvassing on Franklin Avenue in Palmerton, and my heart started skipping beats. I told Sandra I would drive to the hospital in Lehighton, but she insisted on taking me. The hospital did an EKG, a chest X-ray, and various blood tests, and told me I was fine. The irregular heart rate was probably a result of stress, but I will have to wear a “holter monitor” for two days to check things out.
If it is more than stress, remember my last words.
We voted early, glad we did because my wife was in the hospital two days later. It's another reason for early voting. I highly recommend it for everyone. You just never know.
