Finally seen my cardiologist
❤️ WHO PUSHED THE FAST-FORWARD BUTTON?! ⏩
I’m sitting in the lobby of a cardiologist’s office today.
Funny thing is, the cardiologist is someone I used to work with years ago when I worked in the ER.
So sitting here brings back a lot of memories.
But today I’m not running around the ER taking care of people.
I’m sitting in the lobby… watching.
And this lobby is FULLLLLL OF PEOPLE.
I see swollen feet. 🦶
People carrying oxygen.
People walking slowly.
People who look weak or unsteady.
People sitting quietly, probably wondering what the doctor is going to tell them.
Some are elderly, like you might expect.
But what really caught my attention?
HOW MANY YOUNG PEOPLE ARE HERE.
30s.
40s.
50s.
And I’m sitting here thinking…
WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING TO US?! ❤️
What’s in our water? 💧
What’s in our food?
What are we breathing?
Is it stress?
Our lifestyles?
Lack of exercise?
Lack of education?
Are we simply not doing enough preventative medicine?
Or is it a combination of everything?
After spending so many years working in the ER, I’ve seen what happens when people arrive AFTER something has already gone terribly wrong.
Heart attacks.
Strokes.
Diabetes.
High blood pressure.
Vascular disease.
But sitting here today feels different.
It feels like these problems are showing up younger and younger.
Sometimes it feels like somebody pushed the damn…
FAST-FORWARD BUTTON. ⏩
Like we’re aging faster.
Getting sick younger.
And running out of time to correct things before our bodies finally say:
ENOUGH.
Maybe we need to stop waiting until something hurts before we start paying attention.
Learn your family history.
Know your numbers.
Ask questions.
Get educated.
Take prevention seriously.
