Heart attack Quote by Cary McNeal
““FACT 211: The chronic stress of a high-pressure job has been shown to double the risk of a heart attack. Chronic stress may also result in alcoholism, hypertension, and severe depression, and can make your joints ache, your hair fall out, and even stop your period. So that bald drunk lady at work who's always crying and giving away her tampons? Give her a break; she's under a lot of stress.””
