I won't be watching the Cards on Monday

[PACardsFan]

Due to a recently diagnosed heart condition, my wife & son (MDCardsFan) have declared me inactive for Monday Night's game. I've been a Cardinal fan since 1964 & have had the NFL Ticket since '99, so it will be very difficult to miss this game. I'm meeting with the Cardiologist on Monday morning, but they want me stress-free until they can perform a catherization to isolate exactly what the problem is. I'm only 49, exercise regularly, I don't smoke, but unfortunately I have a family history of heart problems. Considering all the Cardinal losses I've seen, maybe this is what it will take for the Cardinals to thump the Niners. Keep me in your prayers!!!! GO CARDINALS!!!

This sucks... wish you all the best!

Bummer man, take care of yourself, the heart is nothing to mess with. I'll be thinking good thoughts for you.

 

[freebyrd]

it might be less stressful on you to just follow the game thread that will be on the board, otherwise check the updates after the game is over, hope all the best for you, they don't call us the cardiac cards for nothing

I'm not a praying man PACF, but I will be thinking about you and wish you all the best. Modern medicine has improved greatly concerning heart problems in the last few years and there are very few problems they can't fix. They cured my atrial fibrillation and I'm in better shape now than I was 10 years ago.

Just stay positive and I'll tell the Cards they need to win and win big so you won't have any stress when you do get to watch the game.

If this doesn't fire up the players who may read this board to go out on Monday and spend a few hours knocking some 49er tum-tum's on their asses, then nothing will.

Hopefully they pull a win out of the hat for you (and us!)

And good luck, and get well soon!

Good luck on that and my thoughts and prayers go out to you, but go 49ers

Your health is paramount

Kudos to your family in recognizing this. Only the best.

PACardsFan:

Tell the doctor it's probably from years of watching the Cardinals back when they were the Cardiac Cards

A little rest will probably help but tell the doctor we're not messing around, they're aren't enough of us that watch every week as it is we need you back in the fold ASAP!

 

[ajcardfan]

I hope you have a speedy recovery PA. You are a million x's more important to your family than any football game. I hope they win for ya.

 

[Mike Olbinski]

Good luck to you man, maybe a win will help your recovery!

 

[Redheart]

Best wishes PA CARDs Fan; I wish God's speed to your recovery and you back on station in PA; the 12th man needs you!

 

[mjb21aztd]

[SECTION 11]

I think a nice MNF ass whooping will have you back in business. Good luck man, I hope you feel better!

 

[D-Dogg]

Speedy recovery!! Man, that sucks.

 

[Goldfield]

Well if your a "glass is half FULL" kind of guy, then NOT being able to watch the Cards could be a blessing in disguise!

I guess the Cards are gonna have to start winning all the games so you can watch.

I would just like to thank everyone who posted on this thread. My dad is the greatest, and a catylist of our family. There is no way that we could function without him. Luckily, I guess he understands that to a point because he went to the doctors and asked for the stress test that revealed all of this. He is the strongest person I have ever met and have no doubt he will pull through, no matter what the circumstances. Thanks again for all of your kind words, thoughts and prayers.

Agreed.... Keep your head up and let us do all of the yelling on this one.

We know you will be back at it shortly.
