people not understanding what cardiac arrest is….
#i screenshot the pissvortex post but didn’t post it. BUT while i agree with the fact the nfl is ass and needs to take injuries more#seriously: what happened to damar hamlin had nothing to do with the nfl. he got hit in the chest which sent his heart into an arrythmia#(MOST LIKELY V-TACH) whichmeans his heart stopped beating correctly and he was clinically dead. v tach is basically your heart just#quivering. the exact same thing happened to my mom last year and the only way to come back from that is to shock it back into rhythm. he#probably has some oxygen deprivation type brain damage like my mom did. it took her several days just to be able to remember anything at all#let alone play fucking football. and we collectively did CPR on her for ~15 minutes until she was shocked. it’s honestly a MIRACLE my mom#is alive and with such little brain damage but now she has an AICD which damar hamlin will more than likely have put in as well. it’ll just#take a while for him to be ‘normal’ again. my mom had her defib put in like 5-7 days later i think.
