In February of 2001 my husband Dave was upstairs and he stated that he was having hot flashes so he went to the patio doors and opened them to get air then like seconds later he was laying on the floor unresponsive ,no pulse nothing.  I called 911 then started CPR on him the 911 people got here in like 7 min, and tried to shock him 3 times and it wasn't working so they put him in ambulance and took him to Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota.  He was there for 1 week and they implanted a defibrillator. To this day they still do not know what caused it.
