Linda was driving her daughter home when she fell unconscious at the wheel without any warning signs. Linda’s foot remained on the gas pedal, forcing Andrea to navigate the car through three intersections before she could pull it to a stop. She called her boyfriend Brandon Bullock, who lived nearby, her father Bill, and 911.
The situation was dire: Linda didn’t have a pulse and was experiencing a full cardiac arrest. Brandon and Bill pulled her from the car. Brandon began CPR until Phoenix Fire Department crews arrived and raced Linda to the Abrazo Scottsdale campus.
Linda would go on to spend a week at the hospital being treated for a blockage in her circumflex artery.
As Linda began recovering, the hospital also provided an array of therapies that enabled her to be discharged to an acute rehabilitation facility for further care.
Linda has no memory of the life-changing crisis that struck April 18, but family members have recounted how the medical staff was both informative and caring.
