Donna: Open Heart Surgery After Stroke and Heart Tumor
The first sign that something was wrong with Donna happened after one of her marathons.  “I felt unusually sick,” she said.  “I’m always tired after marathons, but this was different.”  Since she has been healthy and extremely fit her entire life, 44-year old Donna dismissed her feelings as an isolated reaction. 
About a year later, Donna got the second sign that something was wrong.  “It was a really hot day,” Donna described.  “We were barbequing. I was running around to get everything ready for the meal.  Then I became extremely dizzy and sick.  I told my son to get my husband since I thought I was about to pass out.  It was awful.  I collapsed on the couch.”
