I just got this email from Kevin McCarthy's wife and could hardly believe what I read. This happened this past Friday but I didn't get an earlier email.

Just wanted to let you all know that Kevin is in Mariam Hospital. He had a massive heart attack this afternoon. He is doing ok. Had 95% blockage on BOTH sides! If he had waited any longer to call 911, he wouldn't be here. I know his mom and dad and the good Lord were watching over him because everything just aligned. They were supposed to take him to RI hosp, which is where I went first but once they did the EKG on the way they knew they had to get him to the nearest hospital. The team of surgeons were all there and they had JUST finished with the cath room so it was opened for him. His heart stopped twice and they had to use the paddles on him both times. He has 2 stents put in and the dr said he will likely be fine with little damage. Dr said he will likely be home on Monday but I'll keep you all posted.

If you'd like to send him a card his address is 6 Walker St Rehoboth,MA 02769
