August 12 1999 Reiner Klimke Suffers Heart Attack
Our thoughts and prayers are with
Dr. Reiner Klimke as he recovers from a serious heart attack suffered
on August 6 while traveling by train from his hometown of Munster, Germany
to take part in a legal proceeding in Bonn. The most successful Olympic
equestrian of the century is in intensive care but is resting comfortably
and conversing with family and doctors. The prognosis for the 63-year-old
attorney and dressage great is not yet known as he is undergoing a battery
of tests to determine the cause and severity of the attack. We know that many of you would like to send get well wishes to Dr. Klimke, and encourage you to do so by Email: klimke.com or by sending him a card or note c/o The Sporting Scene, 4002 Portsmouth Street, Houston, TX 77027.
