i am 39 i have had atleast 3 hart atacks . and i'm pretty sure i had a small hart atack 2 weeks ago . but couldn't aford to take off work . i have worked heavy construction my whole life . i am uneducated and i have been convicted of narcotic ,possesion . so am a felon . my doctor recomended me to change my profession . i can see the wisdom in his sugestion . as my hart only seems to get worse . i have people and animals that depend on me , but no one that i can depend on . i can't suport myself or my animals by working at mcdonalds ! and i have no one to suport me if i was to try to get an education . my doctor is kinda vaig , and doesn't give me much help on the problem . he only says i should change my carer . but , i never had a carer only a livlyhood . i worry about that if i kill myself trying to suport myself , my wife , my dogs and my lazy brother . who will take care of them ! i don't except charity . this ofcourse couses more stress and angina . and i would like to live atleast 20 more years . but heavy labor is all i know . i fear that if i dont change my profession i wont live alot longer . which is fine by me . i am ok with death . but, what about the people and things i care for and about ? i can not leave yet . my wife has never realy had a job , and couldn't earn a normal living . but she is an artist and does help out .
all of these problems just seem to get worse , and add to my medical woes . what should i do ?
