How a Heart Attack Became a Wake-Up Call for A+E Networks Chief Paul Buccieri
Paul Buccieri In the summer of 2019 I was training hard for a half Ironman in Lake Placid, N.Y. I felt like I was ingreat shape. The last week before a big race is a time when you’re supposed to start pacing yourself and give your body more rest. But I didn’t. I pushed myself. On a weekend day in mid-August, I was riding mybike down a road I had traveled many times before. The last thing I remember is that time seemed toslow down, and then everything went dark. Later, I was told a good Samaritan stopped and found menear where I went down. There are so many “as luck would have it” moments that day. As luck would have it, a kind motorist was willing to help someone they didn’t know. A hospital was nearby, and it just happened to be having a slow day; this also allowed me to meet a doctor who, as luck would have it, referred me to another specialist without delay. I quickly learned I had a heart problem — acute coronary syndrome with 70% blocked arteries. I had to have two stents placed. I was shocked. I have always been athletic, and training has been my solace. But more than that, it was my most creative space. Now I had to not just slow down but stop. And I would have to adjust to living with cardiovascular disease. I was lucky to be alive, but it was hard to imagine what life might look like now. It was a dark period.
