6 minute read Thursday, Nov. 20, 2025Dennis Mauthe awoke one night in 2014 with the classic symptoms of a heart attack.
“I woke up at my normal time, shortly after 6,” he says. “I was lying there, getting my wits about me, and I felt this sharp pain just below my armpit. It was like somebody poked me with a needle.”
He decided to get out of bed but became “woozy.” He could feel pain in his left arm and lay back in bed, but he then broke into a cold sweat.
“At that point,” he says, “I suspected what was going on. I thought ‘Oh dear, we’re in trouble here.’ And then, I reached over and said to Nancy, ‘We’ve got to go to the hospital now.’” Nancy McPherson, who lives on a farm outside of Brandon with Dennis, her husband, drove him to the Brandon Regional Health Centre. After several tests were conducted, he was in an ambulance headed to the St. Boniface Hospital in Winnipeg.
