I sent a couple of PM's, but since it will be in the newspaper tomorrow, thought I would share with the rest of you.
We had 7 inches of snow Saturday night in KC. My husband went out to shovel Sunday morning (hoping we could get out to a bar with other KU fans to watch the game). He didn't get real far. Came back in the house complaining of fatigue, chest pain and was soon dripping wet with sweat. After a couple of minutes I called 911. He was feeling better and asked me to call off the ambulance, but I told him it was too late for that.
The paramedics examined him, talked with him and loaded him up to go to the ER. He was alert and talking. Luckily they allowed me to ride in the front seat of the ambulance (probably because I would have had to shovel my entire driveway to get MY car out). Midway to the hospital, Greg became non responsive. We got to the ER, they worked on him for 30+ minutes, but he did not survive.
Today and yesterday have been a blur of sadness, hard decisions and more phone calls than anyone should have to make or take. Have experienced great loss and received incredible kindness.
After twenty one years of marriage to an incredible sweet guy, he is gone.
Cherish your loved ones, men. You never know when it is your or their last day. :tears:
