Those are true words. And they apply to other things too....
I recall a 9-1-1 call I answered, the caller described his symptoms (He might well have been reading the book in front of me the description was that good... Up to this point).. ending with:
It can't be my heart, I'm only 27
Well, I have had those symptoms described to me twice (the 2nd time by a roomate in hospital) And he went code blue about 10 minutes later.. Of course with a full team of hospital staffers present he survived.
So did the 27 year old, Thanks to EMS. And a Police dispatcher who got him safely parked while he still could do that and directed EMS to him.
