Worth sharing

I have attended many CPR classes over the years, but was never told this…..
When you are alone and have a heart attack. What are you gonna do then?
A rarely good post that can't be shared often enough:
1.
Take a 2-minute break and read this:
Let's say it's 5:25 pm, and you're driving home after a tough day's work.
2.
You are really tired and frustrated.
All of a sudden, your chest pains. They are starting to radiate in the arm and jaw. It feels like being stabbed in the chest and heart. You're only a few miles away from the nearest hospital or home.
3.
Unfortunately, you don't know if you can make it..
4.
Maybe you've taken CPR training, but the person running the course hasn't told you how to help yourself.
5.
How do you survive a heart attack when you're alone when it happens? A person who is feeling weak and whose heart is beating hard has only about 10 seconds before losing consciousness.
6.
But you can help yourself by coughing repeatedly and very strongly! Deep breaths before every cough. Coughing should be repeated every second until you arrive at the hospital or until your heart starts to beat normally.
7.
Deep breathing gives oxygen to your lungs, and coughing movements boost the heart and blood circulation. Heart pressure also helps to restore a normal heartbeat. Here's how cardiac arrest victims can make it to the hospital for the proper treatment
8.
Cardiologists say if someone gets this message and passes it on to 10 people, we can expect to save at least one life.
9.
FOR WOMEN: You should know that women have additional and different symptoms. Rarely have crushing chest pain or pain in the arms. Often, they have indigestion and tightness across the back at the bra line, plus sudden fatigue.
Instead of posting jokes, you're helping save lives by spreading this message.

Thank you to Agesmart for continuing to spread awareness about the potential scams targeted at the senior community. They are also on the board of the Elder Justice Council of St. Clair County with me. This is good information.

Thank you to everyone who was nice enough to send me birthday wishes. I am truly blessed. I celebrated with my family on Sunday, and i already had received my greatest gift when my son Sam and his family moved back to the area.

To keep me humble, the universe thought I should start my 55th year on this rock with a powerful migraine. Now, after taking the strongest pain killer I could find in the house, hopefully I can get some sleep.

Patrick Varnum at Brightside Insurance is who I refer my clients, friends, and family to. He works with many companies and has the same honest, ethical, and educational approach to Auto and Homeowners insurance that I take with my agency. A review doesn't cost anything and might save you from a big expense in the future. Let me know if you want his direct contact number.

If you see this picture and think “I KNEW IT” you are 💯correct, auto insurance has steadily increased over the past two years.

Even if you’ve made no claims.

Even if you’ve got the same vehicles.

Insurance cover clients using what is known as pooled risk, meaning that as companies take losses, they start to raise the general prices to offset the cost of claims.

In 2020 the average cost of a claim was $20,235. If you were paying $100/month for auto insurance and had an accident it would take that insurance company 16 years to break even on that single claim, assuming you have no other accidents.

Even when the market is up, we can still look for options to make sure that you’re getting the coverage you need. But it’s not just you, that I can promise. If you want more information or want to compare what you currently have I’m always happy to help make sure that you feel comfortable with the coverage you pick and that you have options. Reach out anytime and we can set a time to plan!
