My husband has an ICD, had a cardiac event at 38. He is going to be 52 in a few days and has only got stronger over the years. It gets better, I wish you and your wife all the best in life 💓
Poor Priscilla had to bury Elvis, her grandson and now Lisa Marie…she’s been through so much >

And Elvis's birthday was just January 8th >

I was actually at Graceland for Elvis' birthday and Lisa Marie was there and spoke for about a minute. It's surreal right now. >

TMZ reported earlier that Danny Keough (her ex husband), they apparently had been living together for a while, got home from taking the kids to school and performed CPR until paramedics arrived. Glad the kids weren't there to see their mother like that. >

Reading this and thinking back at what happened to NFL player Demar Hamlin last week with how lucky he was that medical staff was able to immediately give him CPR. It was like the "best" place to have a cardiac arrest. >

Your chances of surviving an out of hospital cardiac arrest without immediate defibrillation are quite low. Damar Hamlin was very lucky he was at an arena with an aed and medical staff. It makes all the difference. Who knows how long Lisa Marie was down without a pulse before she was discovered. >

Welp, time to sign up for CPR classes.  
Thanks for sharing. >

My work makes me take first aid every year and I have always rolled my eyes and said "whatever". It saved my wife's life. >

Glad to hear she's fine. Are there any long term effects after the cardiac arrest or things you guys have to look out for now after she got out of hospital? >

Lots of anoxic brain damage. She had to relearn everything. Walking, talking, eating, etc. It has been like watching her go from an infant to herself again. Now she's back to being smarter than me and about 80-90% of her former self!
She has an ICD so if she has another event it should defibrillate her almost immediately. The device sends her cardiologists a report every night.
