On Sunrise this morning

This morning on Sunrise I saw and heard the following stories.

More women are dying of heart attack then men because women don't generally get the “Hollywood” style of heart attack where there is a lot of chest pain, women are more likely to feel nausea and back pain or stomach pains. It seems that women are 50% more likely to die of a heart attack then a man,not only do we have different symptoms but we ignore the symptoms for longer and just carry on because we don't get that terrible chest pain you see in the movies and tv shows. There have been many times when I have had chest pain but always assume it is just ingestion and do nothing other then take a Mylanta tablet and hope it goes away. Does this come as a surpise to me..........Nope

There is a lot of salt in bread and some breads have more salt then a packet of potato chips,and it isn't just white bread but wholemeal and some flat breads as well, also doesn't come as a surprise to me.

Yesterday afternoon there was what reported as a seize in Tights Hill which is in town about 15-20minutes from where I live, a guy who the day before stabbed three people unknown to him and robbed a store was on the roof of an apartment complex he was on the damn roof for 17 hours he came down around 5am this morning, this hard ass bitch doesn't get why they had to spend so long negotiating with fella but I get you can't shoot the dickhead because that would be wrong. The residents living around the area had a terrible night as they had to leave their home and wasn't allowed back till around 6am that would have pissed me off.

Seems that people prefer a good old book with pages over Ebooks this also doesn’t come as a surprise I prefer a normal book over and Ebook you don't have to charge book and you can carry it everywhere.

Days after a mid-air emergency that saw a propeller fly off a Rex plane bound for Sydney, the airline has taken action and grounded five similar model aircraft. The propeller was found close to homes yesterday not were they thought it would be, it had to be winched out as it was 150kgs in weight and some were surprised it was found so quickly.

That is about all I have for today’s post, more to come tomorrow.

    1. Yeah there is salt in so many foods and often foods some people wouldn't think of having salt

  2. My left arm was bothering me yesterday. From the shoulder down to my wrist. I think I have a pinched nerve but I thought about it...wondering if I was having a heart attack. Of course, like most women, I did nothing. Glad I was right this time :-)

    1. Yeah we do nothing, we wait and see what happens and that isn't always a good idea

  3. I've also read that women might have neck pain during a heart attack, but yes, we carry on because that's what women do. I think we're more accustomed to pain than most men are. A friend of mine who is diabetic told me she doesn't each much bread because it turns to sugar in the body.

    Love,

  4. 17 hours? Send in SWAT and take the lunatic down. No need for negotiating. Two choices, live or die.

  5. Hi, Jo-Anne!

    You brought us all the news that's fit to report and some that isn't. :) It is indeed worrisome that women usually don't get the same type of early warning signs of an impending heart attack that men do. All the more reason for you to take good care of yourself.

    I've got a disturbing news story for you. This morning in my area of Florida, a young man killed his mother. He clobbered her in the face with a baseball bat and then cut her throat. To top it off, it was the mother's birthday! Can you believe it?

    Thanks for visiting Shady today, dear friend Jo-Anne, just saying... :)

  6. Thanks for sharing some of the news from your place. Over here, I just read about having Equinox and expected heat wave. Lots of unpleasant news which can be very depressing at times.

  8. I prefer a paperback over an e-book too. There's something about having a book in my hand that I love.

  9. I had a mild heart attack. It was brought on by severe pancreatitis and my liver shutting down due to a bad gallbladder.

    I had no idea. I soldiered on... and went to work. Two days later I was enjoying a 6 day hospital stay...

    When in doubt, always check it out. :)

  10. You are right about heart attack symptoms. My daughter's neighbor who is a fit 42 year old just had a major heart attack. Very unexpected as she is a marathon runner. She will recover but had very little in the way of symptoms prior to collapsing.

    1. Yeah I think many women do not know what to expect they think it is the gripping pain and tingling or numbness in the arm that is the main sign of a heart attack and it isn't for women

  11. I'm actually surprised to hear that more women are dying of heart attacks than men, I always thought that more men died of heart attacks.
