Default Web site for cardiac athletes

If you are a heart patient who has gone on to make such a good recovery that
your doctor/physician has agreed to let you return to your favourite sport
"so long as you don't over do it!", then you might be interested in a
website, launched in April 2002:

This is a non-commercial, free website. In the forums you will meet many
like-minded, friendly and interesting people from around the world to share
your experiences with. You will learn much from others on how to heal your
heart safely and effectively, to become fitter and healthier, to improve
your sports performance, to stay positive and optimistic.

Also, here is an interesting article from a national newspaper he

heart surgery (I have no connection to this).
