The 10 Things Most Likely to Take Your Precious Life in Wisconsin

You are more valuable than you know, but sadly your existence on this Earth and specifically in Wisconsin is temporary. Did you know it's easy to understand the 10 things in Wisconsin that could potentially take your precious life - today.

The Wisconsin Department of Health has one of the most easily-understandable graphics explaining the 10 things that are most likely to make you take your last breath. I'm not trying to be morbid, but dying is one of the few certainties in life - eventually.

While I try not to dwell on the subject, I would have guessed that cancer would have been the #1 killer, but it's still heart disease and heart attacks that take the most Wisconsin lives. The fact that unintentional injuries is #3 is another reminder that sadly no one has a guarantee of tomorrow.

I will admit that I was also surprised at the #4 killer which I will not say the name of since it's taboo, but it's still a big problem. #9 is among the saddest as I wish I could personally reach out and tell every single person how valuable they are and how much they matter. You may not think so, but someone somewhere loves and needs you.

The Wisconsin Department of Health does a good job making all of this data easily-accessible. Here's hoping that your last day is well down the road and peaceful when it arrives.
