“The doctor didn’t approve me over some heart stuff. Something was going with my heart murmur that I took out there in Vegas. Said they found some weird findings. We ended up coming back to Chicago to do some more tests to make sure I’m good. After re-testing and the doctor’s approval, everything’s all good with me. It was a hectic week, a heartbreaking week the way it ended. I’ll get another opportunity for sure”
