Quote:Finally someone else realizes it is all about John Fox, not his defensive coordinator.

 

Unfortunately, almost nobody lives "many decades" after age 58, and the few who do most likely never had heart problems. But I hope Fox lives as long as anybody can with an artificial aortic valve in his heart.

 

Recovery is going to be very hard for him. I remember when Atlanta coach Dan Reeves had a proecedure to prevent a heart attack because three arteries were blocked, he was ordered to stay away from football. It is going to suck if Fox is told the same thing.

 

 

With modern medicine and medical procedures,   the chances of people living much longer with heart problems certainly has increased.      Of course,  each person's situation is different.

 

Regarding Dan Reeves,   the good news is he did eventually return in the 1998 season after having heart surgery.    Being that Reeves is still alive today,   almost 15 years later,   is even better news.

 

The bottom line is every additional day each of us has is a blessing.
