I hate firefighters as much as the next guy but my wife had a heart attack about a year ago and the only thing that saved her was these over paid chauffeurs rushing her to the hospital so she could have emergency surgery.

So for that reason I always respect the siren and pull over.

34, had what’s called SCAD, which is spontaneous coronary artery dissection. Basically the inner layer of left coronary detached and then tore and ripped into all three arteries on her left side causing complete blockages.

She had like 3 massive heart attacks, coded out as they rushed her into the OR.

They ended up trying a triple bypass but were only able to do two but she’s all good now.

Unlike the fraud firefighters the open heart surgeon was the true alpha. Dude straight up told me pre surgery she would probably die but if she was going to die if they could leave her on heart lung machine so I could see her again.

Was a pretty interesting experience. I then spent 7 days living in an armchair in the ICU which was another interesting experience because I didn’t sleep for like the first 4 days, gakked out on adrenaline and Diet Coke.

Open heart dude was super 180 and we’re forever indebted to him.

That dude deserves every penny of his salary. He didn’t leave her side till like midnight the night of the surgery, which was like an emergency 8 hr surgery which they finished at 9. He was back the next morning at 6 am.

Well his normal schedule was more 7 am to 7/8 pm. But the dude was routinely there later and earlier.

Also the difference between docs and surgeons became very apparent in just like a day in the ICU. While the docs were very good and a crucial part of her recovery they are definitely hesistant to take action.

Could you explain this, so if he knew in the OR she was dying he would put her on the heart lung machine and have a smoke break

There was a shitload going on so I’m sure my memory is clouded but I think it was like if she dies we may be able to keep her alive for a few minutes on heart lung pump so u can see her and say goodbye, even though she’d be unconscious and filleted open.

There was also talk of potentially trying to keep her on a heart lung pump for a period of time to see if they could find a transplant or try a potential artificial heart until a transplant was needed.

Fortunately the surgery went as well as could be expected given the circumstances so it wasn’t necessary.

I should prob make a separate post about it but this is the first time I’ve mentioned it on here. Previously it was too close to home since it was so recent.

Lol those were my thoughts throughout. Truly a PEAK experience.

Probably more so for my wife at least up to the point she went unconscious.

I heard somewhat the day of but much more later that it was utter chaos when she came in. They rushed her to the catch lab where there were like four interventional cardiologists working on her at once to try to get blood flow back to heart tissue.

Before she went unconscious she said everyone was just screaming and saying fuck over and over.

i have never even HEARD of a fire occurring since. maybe they happen, but i have no firsthand knowledge of it.

two things.

1. Have seen 2 residential homes burn in LA and know someone else who lost their home in the Malibu fires. Family is in San Diego so the fires a few years back were insane and almost burned family house and the rest of the county to the ground. But, if you're from CA you are kinda used to it. For the day to day shit we don't need as many, but for fire season we need a ton.

2. Buddies father was a firefighter in LA. We went to a Lakers game and parked at the firehouse and they drove us to the front of Staples full crew sirens blaring. Picked us up at the end of the game same deal. It was 180.

Emergency vehicles are basically the car version of emotional support dogs. Total flame.
