In a heartbeat, you could be the difference.
Two years ago I was at church camp mountain biking when i just couldnt keep up with my fellow bikers, the next night I was playing basketball and I left after one trip down the court, the next day I was kayaking and struggled to finish... the ironic part of this story I felt fine, no shortness of breath, no chest tightness, no weakness or numbness, no throbbing pains, not even tired...I just couldn't do the activities. A day later I spent 8 hours in the ER, and was told I had a genetic defect and that I needed open heart surgery immediately.
9 out of 10 people who suffer cardiac arrest outside the hospital don’t survive. Most of the time, it’s because no one nearby performed CPR. But together, we can change that.
