The doctor told Fred after the examina tion that his condition was the worst of the 70 patients he’d seen that day. It was the hospital for Fred, and now, ordered the doctor. Fred hesitated. There were the cakes he’d bought on impulse, en route, waiting to be delivered to Bruce and his buddies over at the bowling alley Bruce’s birthday surprise and a token for saving Fred’s life.

Evi dence gathered from his blood samples that were tested and examined in the lab proved it. Fred was released after the sec ond night and after achieving a good report on the treadmill the next morning. His orders were to take it easy the next few days. Miraculously, Fred’s heart had no permanent damage but sore ness from the awkward fall lin gered in his legs.
