I hide my poor health from my wife and children. I am only 34, but overweight. Every night I put my infant daughter to sleep. She weighs 15 pounds, but just carrying her up one flight of stairs makes me so winded that I can’t sing to her because I’m trying to catch my breath. I have a dull pain in my chest that’s getting worse. I know a heart attack is coming. But I don’t want to sound like a whiner or like I’m faking it for attention. I only hope that when it DOES happen, people are around to help me.
