Lives are often destroyed by heart disease. In particular, heart attacks, which are caused by blockage of the arteries that supply blood to the heart muscles, can strike suddenly and without warning. It is estimated that half of all people who suffer a heart attack may die without the opportunity to reach hospital for treatment. Survivors of heart attacks are often left with both mental and physical disabilities.
