> *"Don't step out of your room for a month. *
> 
> *Don't take the stairs for 2 months. *
> 
> *Don't drive for 3 months. *
> 
> *And there are many more such Don'ts in the list, so John was being told by his Doctor *
> 
> *John was being discharged after a month at the hospital due to a HeartAttack that nearly got him*
> 
> * The prescribed list of Dont's was to keep him from going back to the hospital with a 2nd heart attack. *
> 
> *Now you tell me, will John be able to go to work if he isn't allowed to walk, drive or take the stairs? *
> 
> *And if he isn't going to work, how will he take care of his monthly bills?*
> 
> *The expenses obviously won't take a 6-month break. John has to pay his rent. *
> 
> *His mortgage loan EMI back home must be paid.  *
> 
> *The school fees of his kids were due. Auto Loan, CreditCard, Utility & Grocery Bills too have to be paid.*
> 
> *Merely worrying about all this could cause John that dreaded 2nd attack. *
> 
> *But that's where John's Critical Illness Insurance kicked in.*
> 
> *That benefit helped him maintain the same lifestyle he had prior to the heart attack.*
> 
> *John didn't have to give up on his dreams just because life dealt him a wrong hand.*
> 
> *And when he would be back after a few months of rest & recuperation, his family would definitely be thankful to him for planning ahead.*
> 
> *What about you?*
> 
> *Have you Planned Ahead?"*
