My SCA happened 11-4-93. I soon will be entering my teenage years. I lived only because of the survivor chain and the grace of God. I was at my son's football game and died. A friend ran to call 9-1-1, two spectators started CPR and the Fremont Fire Department arrived about 10 minutes after I died. They had just added defibrillators about four months before my arrest. They were able to get a pulse after five shocks and I was rushed to a nearby hospital. I spent two weeks unconscious and finally awakened to learn of the heroic efforts to save my life. My best wishes to those of you who have survived and hopefully we can do something to save others who may experience SCA.
