Default Snow shovels of Death

I know many here are fighting mother nature this week....Ice,snow and bitter cold.
I came across an article this morning and want to just pass it along as a reminder

Best advice comes at the end, hire someone to do the heavy lifting......

Thanks for posting.

Hopefully people will read. I dont post family health or personal affairs on the internet but will this time if one person will listen.

My Dad passed from this FEB 14 three years ago.

He was moving slush ice and snow off back deck so their cat could get in and out during a DC MD winter storm.

A neighbor kid saw him on the ground though the gate and called for help, but other neighbor who responded was unable to revive him. Roads were icey so Rescue Squad was a few minutes gettting there.

He hit the ground dead.

He was in reasonable health at 75. Not overweight, didnt smoke or drink.

Be careful.
