My problem is bad genes. My father, grandfather, uncles and six of my male cousins died from heart attacks. I have always been thin, active and I eat a low fat diet.

My sister never exercised a minute of her life, ate a horrible high fat diet, was morbidly obese and did not have any cardiac problems. It just wasn’t fair. She got the good genes.
