PHA Media accompanied Fabrice Muamba to the BBC One 999 awards, where the medical team who saved his life received a special award for their incredible efforts. www.pha-media.com/
Have been to a cardiac arrest update today and Fabrice's situation was discussed. I had to Google it again and now I'm in tears!, What a lovely man and such a fantastic effort to save him. X
i have nothing to do with either clubs im.a livepool fan. but between this and hillsborough they never fail to make me weep........and make me smile. fantastic people......we all should be proud of them and realise what any life is worth.
It’s just such a crying shame mate that there were fences, misunderstandings and lies that led to the deaths of Soo many people who went to watch a football match !! God bless YNWA
As the doctor who saved his life said. If you are going to have a heart attack have one on a football pitch. They have everything in place to give the best possible care
SubjectRandom That "celebrity" was the guy whose life was saved. You just said "ignore him". Sorry, if you fought for your life for 78 minutes and more and you recovered to get an award only to be told that, how would you feel. He deserved his award just as much as the doctors.
As much as I am glad he survived, I can't help but think how many others who suffered the same fate as muamba did on this day did not get so lucky to have people who would stick with it and try no matter what to revive him, I'm sure many people have been lost simply because certain people could not find the drive to continue. Also, to all the footballers who cry wolf and go down like this: Remember, you might not be so lucky to get a response such as this when you need it, due to so many players dropping at the slightest touch (yes, muamba dropped without anyone touching him, so that makes it more obvious) but still, my point stands.
As a person with genetic Long QT syndrome myself, My question is in his early medical tests which as a footballer he would have regularly why they didn't pick up he had arrythmia issues which lead to his collapse? There have been many advances in this sudden cardiac syndrome in the last few years.
bigegg7170 doubtful, a player playing for Bolton, especially one who isn't a superstar, probably wasn't on more than £30/40k a week (not that it's not a huge amount of money), but if you consider his daily pay to be around £6k... you're talking nonsense because some of those cardiologists could easily be on 200k a year. Also, show some respect. This is a touching, beautiful video and all you've done is bring negativity; you're the opposite of the brave, selfless people in this story.
