What Causes Massive Heart Attack During Sleep?
My friend just died of a massive heart attack during his sleep at night. His wife found him dead next to here in the morning. How can this be. Does that mean he went quickly and didn t suffer? His wife is heartbroken thinking she slept thru his struggles and didn t help him
