My oldest brother had 2 stents put in his heart yesterday.

2 Blockages. He's getting let out today. He sounds fine.
With me having a heart attack back in 2023, I think my middle brother better get his ticker checked.

A very close friend had his heart attack and stent at the exact age his dad had a heart attack. One of his sisters also has heart problems.
Yep - family health issues are real.
