Tampa Entrepreneur has Heart Attack and Brilliant Idea
Tampa’s Diana Shlowicz, a self-described “hustler”, “grinder” and “idea woman” suffered a mild heart attack while eating dinner at Malio’s last night.
She’s listed in good condition and is expected to make a full recovery, but as she was loaded into a Hillsborough County Fire & Rescue ambulance in severe pain, she began pitching an idea to the emergency medical technicians (EMTs) rendering aid.
“Hey, you know something? Ow. This thing would make a pretty cool food truck,” she observed.
“Think about it. It’s colorful, you have the lights and siren, it definitely wouldn’t go unnoticed,” she said. “I’m having trouble breathing.”
One of the EMTs advised her to stop talking and just try to relax before they got to Tampa General Hospital but she was on a roll.
“What’s that thing? A defibrillator? You could serve a nice greasy pork rib sandwich and call it The DeRIBrillator! Ouch. That’s pretty brilliant,” she said. “Argh. I’m in agony.”
“You can use that if you want. Compliments of Diana the Idea Woman. My brain is always working and I come up with stuff like this all the time. Nothing can stop me,” she said as she blacked out.
