I heard on the radio the #1 killer of women is heart disease. That’s interesting because I think most people would figure it’s breast cancer. Anyway I think that is significant because it shows both women and men can have heart troubles (the physical kind/not the emotional kind).

      As a heart patient, I do research on the subject. 60% of heart patients are women.
