  My dad choked at a restaurant and was out for 10 minutes. Last attempt brought him back. That was 2 years ago and he has some slight memory issues along with mobility issues. Happy we have him but his life was forever changed that day.
context: Incredible! Hope he continues to improve and ultimately lives a long happy life, with or without football. >
  
  Probably without, unless he's got like, no heart or lung problems after having to be resuscitated twice after a cardiac arrest >
  
  Even once though is enough to do permanent damage, especially for ten minutes. I mean, obviously all we can do is wait and see what’s going on with him, but calling it a career is very possible. As durable and resilient as our lungs and ribs can be, as great as they can be at bouncing back, it wouldn’t surprise me if they’re so damaged that even another hit could shake the mucus all loose and give him pneumonia or an infection or worse. I’m not a doctor but I do manage an acute care inpatient unit that specializes in cardio thoracic care
  Edit: I get it, some of y’all think someone who probably just went through SSRF will be perfectly fine with stepping back out on the field and risk getting a pneumothorax from a 350lb lineman. Apparently pulmonary edema and aspiration pneumonia from scar tissue are foreign concepts also. 
  Also please note that I do not try and diagnose some preexisting heart condition or commotio cortis. I’m out
