Well that was a training session I won’t forget.
I was coaching my under 7’s when I started to feel a bit light headed and clammy. I thought i’d just overdone things – I’m 55 and don’t run as much as I used to – so I thought a bottle of water would sort me out.
To cut a long story short, I was blue lighted to the Freeman Hospital in Newcastle and was told I was having a heart attack.
Within an hour I was having a stent fitted and was electric shocked 16 times after suffering a Cardiac Arrest.
Only 1 hour after that I was on the ward feeling 100% better !
Thank you to the NHS … and I was out of hospital 2 days later.
That was 3 weeks ago and I hope to return to coaching later this week ….
