Nashville, TN, United States – August 18, 2015 /PressCable/ —
ABC producer Sandra Temko has released an alarming report into the recent near death of her husband, Sean. Sharing this personally traumatic story with the public was an easy decision for Temko because it may make a difference in the lives of others who also have known risk factors of cardiovascular disease and put off treatment.
The family hopes that sharing their story may make the difference between life and death for at least one person who, like Sean Temko, thinks that they don’t need to take their prescribed medications for cholesterol and hypertension.
Temko remembers that fateful day vividly, saying “I was waiting for my husband to come home for dinner when I got the text message every spouse fears. It was from Sean’s number, but it wasn’t Sean – ‘Hey there, I’m an EMS tech taking your husband to the emergency room’.” It was then that she discovered her husband was being treated for severe chest pain, and became riddled with the fear that he may not survive.
Miraculously, Sean recovered, but now his life is different in many aspects. Temko explained further in a statement, “Things that were once easy for him were now difficult, even impossible. He had to work up the strength to walk for more than 15 minutes at a time. He couldn’t pick up our son, and we had to explain that dad had a ‘boo-boo’.”
What the family aims to accomplish by sharing their traumatic story is that more people will consider the dangers associated with heart disease, and will take the steps necessary to prevent it while they still can.
With obesity, hypertension, and metabolic disease becoming unsettlingly more common, the Temko family continues to stress the importance of health, “If you think having a heart attack in your forties is unusual, think again – heart attack risk increases with age. But Sean’s case is the very example of why you should know your heart disease risks – so you can try to prevent it before it happens. Otherwise it could be your loved one on the other end of a text message from a stranger, wondering if they will ever see you alive again.”
