A “widow-maker” heart attack is among the most serious types of cardiac arrest. It is caused by a complete blockage of the left anterior descending, or LAD, coronary artery, a major pipeline for supplying blood to the heart — and as its name suggests, it is all too often deadly, because a significant amount of the heart’s tissue is affected by a blockage in this area. But three years ago, thanks to a neighbor’s quick response and an abundance of God’s grace, Bulloch County man Nelson Lightsey beat the odds and survived to share his story. Nelson, 73, remembers February 28, 2022, as an ordinary Monday — until it wasn’t. He had completed some installation and climbed a few ladders as part of his cabinetry business, a day that felt no different than any other day. Just a month before, he’d had his routine six-month physical, and everything came out fine.
