nights. you just can't predict that thunderstorms are going to fire off the mountains like they did work. some say trying to cause here in cuba. here's where she was. right in the middle, right in destabilization in lebanon. between, still 57 miles to go to trying to influence the conflict key west. and let me show you what the that is ongoing in syria in radar looked like from last favor of one side for the other. night. look at the lightning going there's no denying all of that. right over her position right a lot of people are concerned. there. here's havana. the winds are nice and calm. i'm concerned. she had to wait for what we call same time i don't think you need to blow it out of proportion the doldrums. no real thunderstorms, no real tonight. i think what really needs to be wind during the day. when these things popped up done is for those politicians yesterday afternoon along the and those other leaders to get coast of cuba, they rolled with to work setting things right, the wind right across and right getting these communities to at over diana. she had to get out of the water. it was literally just too rough. least stay there fire and not bring the conflict into lebanon. >> sanjay, tell us a little bit back to you. about the other physical >> jim clancy, we appreciate you conditions. you followed her very extensi being able to put this story extensively last year. into context the only way a we had a chance to talk to her veteran journalist can. after that failed swim that go we appreciate it there in around. what happened this time? >> some of it was the same sort beirut. it's a fete she says she of thing. obviously from a physical standpoint, because i think that keeps trying until she finishes. gets lost in here a little bit. her attempt to swim from cuba to simply swimming, she's burning so many calories. florida fails again. we calculated, you know, we have exclusive pictures from literally 40,000 calories burning. the moment it ended.

so she has to try and get that we're getting word of a back as she's swimming. you lose about a half a liter of planned explosion in new york where they're building another subway. we'll take you there, next. try. fluid every half hour. whether it's supporting a delaware nonprofit that's providing training and employment opportunities, she's tried this four times as investing in the revitalization of a neighborhood in the bronx, you mentioned. again, it was in part the weather chad was talking about and these jellyfish stings. look at those pictures, we have or providing the financing to help a couple showing how much her face was sort of torn up by a beloved san diego bakery expand, these jellyfish stings. it doesn't just look bad. what's important to communities across the country it's also potentially medically is important to us. problematic because, you know, and we're proud to work you have to breathe through your with all of those who are creating a stronger future mouth. you're doing it under challenging conditions. you can get swelling due to the for everyone. jellyfish stings on your lips and tongue. it can be a problem. i think, you know, she was pulled out of the water sunday night the first time. >> right. >> because of weather. >> she was on the boat for a while. got back in, and 12:55 this morning, the same thing, she got out of the boat, but this time they waited a few hours at 100% natural ingredients like roasted peanuts, sunrise. they said, you know what, it's not going to happen. >> the last time she needed, creamy peanut butter, and a rich dark chocolate flavor. what, four liters of -- what is plus, 10 grams of protein. it going to take for her to so it's energy straight from nature to you. recover this go around? >> last time she had four liters nature valley protein bars.

pretty quickly after the swim, so, you know, it's probably -- it's ongoing right now. i mean, she's still sort of recuperating even as we speak right now on a boat heading back toward key west. i think they just give as much fluids to get the blood pressure back up, heart rate back down. i don't know exactly what it's going to be. you lose an inordinate amount of fluids, despite how much she drinks during the swim. >> you have to love her spirit, really, her undying secret. let me ask withdryou this. she's going to be 63 tomorrow. her birthday is tomorrow. can she physically do this? a 63-year-old woman. is it possible to do this swim? >> you know, they calculated she would be swimming for 60 hours if she were to do it and not get blown off course and have good weather. from beginning to end, she was 63 hours. again, she got on the boat a couple times in the middle of all this. you know, i think at this point from a physical standpoint, she's proven something, i think, very important. a woman in her 60s has come very close to doing this now a few times. i think it's mental in her case. she talked to us last year and

said it wasn't happening again. i will tell you, suzanne, the rest of the story was a couple weeks later. she called and said, it is happening again. here we are. we'll have to wait and see. >> she said she was retiring then she jumped back into the water. the message she sent to us last year, be your best self. be the best you you can be. >> she's truly one of the most inspiring people i know. it's just remarkable what she does, what she stands for. every time i walk away, i feel a little bit more like a slacker hanging out with diana nyad. >> think how i feel next to you, sanjay gupta, me, a slacker as well. thank you, sanjay. she inspires us all. >> thank you. here's some free money advice from the cnn help desk. >> hi there, here on the help desk today we're talking about whato do with extra cash. a real big problem to have, right? with me, liz miller, and doug flynn. liz, this is the first question. >> my husband and i are six months away from paying off our i want to take you right to house. what's the best thing to do with new york. these pictures just in.

actress and comedian rosie o'donnell had a heart attack and didn't go to the hospital until the next day. she just revealed this in a poem. dr. sanjay gupta is here. first, take me back and tell me what happened. >> it caught a lot of people by surprise. this is how she ended up telling people through her blog. it was last tuesday. i guess she was walking through a parking lot and heard somebody asking for help. the person was a woman in car who need eed help getting out. the woman was surprised. a couple hours later she started to have some more vague

symptoms, pain. some of it in her arms and she felt clammy and nauseated. she knew enough to take an aspirin. she read take an aspirin. she didn't call her doctors or 911. the next day she calls the doctor, goes in. they get an ekg which shows evidence she probably had a heart attack. >> probably had a heart attack. that's what the doctors are saying. >> what that means is some heart muscle has died. you can test for that with a blood test to see if you sthee. i think they did see evidence of that. when they did the katherization. they saw a narrowing that looked like that. take a look. that's the stint. you die late open the blood vessel and leave that scaffolding in place to hold it open. >> she talks about nausea,

vomiting. are those symptoms different in women than men? >> yes. if you're at risk or starting to have unusual symptoms that come on suddenly, you need two worry whether you're man or woman. typically the more crushing chest pain for men. this is what she described in the blog. for men typically it's chest pain. for women it can be chest pain but also just being tired. it can be back pain. it can be the nausea that rosie o'donnell described. if you're at risk or have a family history or worried about it and something comes on that's unusual and comes on quickly, that's something you need to get checked out. >> let's pick up where the graphic left off. she said i became sick, my skin

was clammy. i googled women's heart attack symptoms. i had many of them but i thought nah. at the end she said if you think something's happening please call 911. >> more women are likely to die of heart disease than men. people don't realize that and part of what you describe. women blow this off. there's about 50% likely to call 911 if they're having a heart attack. 79% of the time they will call on behalf of somebody else. they recognize the symptoms of somebody else. >> need to worry about themselves. it's a great reminder for all of us. thank you very much. we appreciate it. as mitt romney and paul ryan hit the trail together when it comes to the economy their differences with president obama are pretty clear. the to give you a better idea of their background cnn compared romney and obama's resumes and
