#33 Against All Odds - Tyrone Man fights back from widow-maker heart attack in New York

In this episode I get to speak to an old friend from Tyrone who has been building a new life for himself and his family over the last 10 years in New York City.   On 29th March at around 8pm, Mickey Coleman came back from his usual run in the city, only to experience an excruciating pain in his chest.  He told his wife he needed an ambulance as he knew something was badly wrong.  What Mickey didn't know at that time was that he was experiencing what is known in the medical world as a "widow -maker" heart attack, which has a 6% survival rate. That means that 94% of people who have this kind of heart attack die.  Mickey was immediately now in his biggest ever battle, which was to live. His heart stopped three times in the ambulance on the way to hospital and he spent a number of days in a coma in the hospital.  In those few days Mickey tells me on the podcast he has a number of weird, deep dark spiritual experiences in his own mind as he was fighting for his life in hospital. The amazing news being that 12 days later, he was able to leave hospital and head for home to start his new life of recovery. In this conversation, Mickey tells us exactly what happened on the night of the 29th March and what the last few months have looked like for him and his family. The new Mickey is now incredibly grateful for everything that he has in his life today.  His wife and kids, his family, his health and his new sense of purpose.  His story of recovery has travelled around the world as he is a very popular well know sportsman and musician. I would like to wish Mickey well and thank him for sharing his experience with me on the pod.  The reason I wanted to get him on is that I do believe his story, approach to life and changes he has made in his life, can educate, empower and inspire all of us to continue to embrace CHANGE in our own lives. Mickey has transitioned to a plant based lifestyle, and is incredibly passionate about this switch and how his new nutrition program is going to help keep him alive and healthy for a very long time.
