Heart attack and Cardiac Arrest

[Hopingstar]

Hi

Last September my husband had a heart attack - we did everything quickly as we were near him including calling Ambulance , then he went to cardiac arrest and we did the CPR till ambulance came but he didn’t survived 😢

You are 5 months on from what will always be the most traumatic thing you will ever have to face. I think I know how you feel. Like you my hubby had a sudden cardiac arrest and I was faced with doing CPR while I waited for the paramedic to arrive. Unlike you I was fortunate that my husband survived. Many weeks in ITU and then having an implanted defibrillator. I look back at that night and still recall all those emotions. We are now 6 years on and life, for us, is almost back to as normal as it will ever be.

Many on this forum will have had similar experiences to those that you have gone through just know we are all thinking about you and send our love and best wishes to you.
