saint lard Posted 11 January, 2014 Share Posted 11 January, 2014 Horrible scenes in the chapel as a person has a heart attack and requires resuscitation. Hats off the stewards,quite a task organising people to be reseated whilst paramedics try to do thief job. Logistical nightmare. Many people and kids visibly upset. I do hope the person in question pulls through. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bearsy Posted 11 January, 2014 Share Posted 11 January, 2014 amazing how people recover from heart attacks nowdays. We had 3 guys at work last year and they were all fine + back at work, one of them in like a week. Reckon SMS is probably good place to have one, if there is such a thing, what with St. Johns medics on standby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohio Saint Posted 11 January, 2014 Share Posted 11 January, 2014 Thanks St Chalet for some good, well reasoned modding. My better phrased response, for those able to read beyond emotive words and understand the intent behind the whole posts:- I have no idea who he is, but If he is a good guy, I wish him all the best, and a fast recovery.

Ohio Saint Posted 11 January, 2014 Share Posted 11 January, 2014 The irony of all this is that I am the same age as this guy. Also had a heart attack, and probably best understands what he was going through. Nothing beats the power of an internet forum though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lifeintheslowlane Posted 11 January, 2014 Share Posted 11 January, 2014 Well thank goodness for that. We sit just in front of the disabled section in The Chapel and saw it all unfold in front of us. We couldn't see much as the poor chap was surrounded by stewards and St. John's Ambulance people but it's reassuring to know they were onto it very quickly. Lot's of surrounding people were ushered away to make room for all those who needed to be there. A really big congratulations and thanks to all those who took part in a life and death situation...ALL SAINTS. Hope he'll back watching the lads soon.

Just a Fan Posted 11 January, 2014 Share Posted 11 January, 2014 Didn't realise anything had happened at the time, but saw the ambulance arriving as we were walking away after the game.

9-3 Posted 11 January, 2014 Share Posted 11 January, 2014 Hope all is well with the Saints fan. About eight rows in front of me. Lots of medics and I saw 2 doctors quickly appear, looked very serious for about 15 minutes, cleared a couple of rows of spectators. The stewards were brilliant. Well done to them. I really hope the person is ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dimond Geezer Posted 11 January, 2014 Share Posted 11 January, 2014 I was watching it all unfold from the family corner. If you're going to suffer a medical emergency, there probably isn't a better place to do it than a modern premiership stadium, with paramedics & an ambulance or two on hand. Well done to the stewards who had to cope with the masses leaving at the same time the medics wanted to leave. Good luck to the feller, hope he makes a full recovery.

Matthew Le Tissier Posted 11 January, 2014 Share Posted 11 January, 2014 Being at st Mary's today could very well have saved his life.
