I met her at the Romantic Times convention in Houston year before last. She was a very nice, likable person. In fact, I was hoping she would be in Orlando this year. I believe she had hosted the Strawberries and Champagne portion. I will keep her in my prayers!! I really hate to hear this! I met her at the Romantic Times convention in Houston year before last.

He said Robin had a rough day but by day's end she was doing much better. Her voice is thankfully coming back very slowly so they believe it was more to do with vocal cords than a stroke so that is great news. Don says she is sitting up and "feisty" so that is definitely great news. As for what happened, she was brought into the hospital with a massive heart attack on Christmas Day and then underwent emergency angioplasty to unblock the clogged arteries the heart which was successful. Hearing from fans would be great medicine for her right now so if you can please send good wishes to: Robin Schone P.O. Box 72725 Roselle, IL 60172 A full recovery is expected, however, it will be a slow one." There is another post by Carol Stacy that says:

I hope everyone reading this will take the time to read up about the symptoms of heart attack in women, which can be very different from those in men, and educate those around them to take it seriously if they complain about jaw pain and so on. I hope Ms Schone recovers fully and it's good news that she did at least survive the initial attack. A terrible shock for her family.
