Re: High Blood Pressure Can Kill You

December 28, 2008

Hi Donnie;

Yes, I presently live in Louisville, though I've lived all over the

U.S. If your ears are ringing, at least find a Kroger's and check

your BP. If it's high, go to the emergency room! As we have been

trying to tell everyone, BP isn't just a chronic pain that makes you

want to die sometimes. If you mess around with it YOU CAN POSSIBLY

DIE.

I think we're all worried about you.

Good luck!

Jeanne
