Om Malik On The Mend

Blogosphere shocked by heart attack news
Noteworthy tech blogger Om Malik has been recovering from a heart attack since December 28th, he told GigaOm readers today.

As many in the blogosphere are just discovering, GigaOm founder Om Malik has a good reason for being absent from his namesake blog for the past few days. A coronary episode put him out of action, according to a post at GigaOm he penned today:

I was able to walk into the hospital for treatment that night and have been recovering here ever since. With the support of my family and my team, I am on the road to a full recovery. I am going to be OK.
That support included a purging of all kinds of indulgences from his home. Malik said his apartment is now free of "smokes, scotch and all my favorite fatty foods."

Well-wishers have been invited to leave their best wishes in the comments of the blog post, and as of this writing 140 comments have been made there. We wish him a speedy and full recovery.

The American Heart Association website provides lots of information on and the prevention of cardiac problems. It's well worth a read by everybody. Ladies should also check out the Association's Go Red For Women movement, as a step toward thwarting the number one killer of American women.
