One year anniversary…thank you nurses.

One year ago today, in DFW airport during a layover, my husband had an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. For 8 minutes, he received bystander CPR w/AED. We believe all who ran to help from various gates were medical professionals. Probably all nurses. They were relentless and methodical and they revived him. After 16 nights in the hospital and CABG, he was discharged. We know how rare it is that he lived and survived with all his mental faculties. Because it was an airport, these heroes could live anywhere. They saved a life and then walked off separately to return to their travels. We do not know them but we remember them and thank them every single day. A year later, my husband is doing great and every doctor we have seen over the past year has said “Wow! He is a lucky man.”
