“I recently learned that a broken heart is a real thing, medically. I fact checked what I found with Harvard Medical School, the Mayo Clinic, and good ol’ WebMD. I was astonished. It’s real. What I’m feeling has been validated. The medical term is Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy. It can be caused by extreme emotions. Although rare, Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy can be lethal. It is entirely possible to die of a broken heart.” — Trevor Church
