Total shock

I can't believe it. My husband plays bridge with this guy who has diabetes. He always brags to me about how he eats what he wants because he wants to enjoy life. He said that he hopes to die with a french fry in each hand. I told him last week that he is at risk for a heart attack or stroke and that one day he will get a warning.

Well his wife just phoned to say he is dead. A heart attack. I can't believe it, but I am so sad that he did not get just a warning so that he could change his ways. And he looked so healthy - slim, athletic, and full of bravado.

I am in shock.
