Kerri has a heart attack

Kerri has a heart attack

My little sister, Kerri, had a heart attack 2 days ago and was rushed to hospital.

She’s the same age as me.

Small arteries

This was pretty unexpected. She has a unique condition which has led to one of the smaller arteries feeding her heart becoming inflamed and starting a nervous reaction leading to pain and pressure in her chest and arms. Commonly known as a ‘heart attack’.

She pointed out exactly where the problem lied.

Here’s a diagram.

As far as I know, one of the arteries, as pictured in the diagram has become damaged. Not Blocked. But damaged.
Whether her heart sustains damage remains to be seen.

Little Sis
Here’s a picture of sis for those that have never seen her.

Let’s hope she gets well soon…
