FYI My Friends โค๏ธ
I have attended CPR classes over the years, but was never told this particular scenario. I was told that when your body starts sweating profusely for no apparent reason followed by what feels like a spasm at the end of your esophagus, that is your bodyโs warning sign.
When you are alone and have a heart attack, what are you gonna do? A really good post that can't be shared often enough:
1. Take a 2 minute break and read this:
Let's say it's 5:25 pm and you're driving home after an unusually hard day's work.
2. You are really tired and frustrated.
All of a sudden you experience chest pains. They are starting to radiate in the arm and jaw. It feels like being stabbed in the chest and heart. You're only a few miles away from the nearest hospital or home.
3. Unfortunately you don't know if you can make it..
4. Maybe you've taken CPR training, but the person running the course hasn't told you how to help yourself.
5. How do you survive a heart attack when you're alone when it happens? A person who is feeling weak and whose heart is beating hard has only about 10 seconds before losing consciousness.
6. But you can help yourself by coughing repeatedly and very strongly! Deep breaths before every cough. Coughing should be repeated every second until you arrive at the hospital or until your heart starts to beat normally.
7. Deep breathing gives oxygen to your lungs and coughing movements boost the heart and blood circulation. Heart pressure also helps to restore a normal heartbeat. Thatโs how cardiac arrest victims can make it to the hospital for the right treatment.
8. Cardiologists say if someone gets this message and passes it on to 10 people, we can expect to save at least one life.
9. FOR WOMEN: You should know that women have additional and different symptoms. Rarely have crushing chest pain or pain in the arms. Often have indigestion and tightness across the back at the bra line plus sudden fatigue.
โค๏ธSharing this could help SAVE a life ๐
@feelgoodtale It's easy to forget that here are seniors out there struggling physically and financially. Home repairs and routine maintenance have become so unaffordable they are out of reach for many. What a great blessing to bring their home back to life. ๐
@Jodicab22 Disney will do whatever they want, but it was Disney who promoted resort hopping for years as part of the "experience". They also allowed influencers with cameras into these resorts because it was good advertising. Now that it's out of control they are changing the policy.
@RandmDisneyDude I'm jealous. I've never seen BOGO on Mickey Bars in my neck of the woods. Occasionally, they will go on sale for a $1.00 off. They are pretty good though.
@BradleysFunFam This was suggested when they did this last Christmas, and nothing happened. Sadly, I don't think Disney will be bringing back the gingerbread house at any location.
@JimShull Sad, but not unexpected. This is all part of the agenda to diminish resort hopping. I'm sure there will be more resort restrictions on the horizon.
@MTARDI32@Disney@Disneyland@WaltDisneyWorld@DisneyParks@WaltDisneyCo Tinana's has been troublesome for Disney, now they have a major safety issue to deal with. I would be shocked if they brought back Splash, but at this point I'm sure the attraction will soon be closed for rehab to install restraints. They don't want a repeat of this incident.
@worldparks365 They are expensive but wonderful. Nothing like getting dropped off at the Magic Kingdom in the morning, or the ride back to your resort after fireworks.
@Imsouthern@ScottGustin Could very well be. We were on Splash a few years back with our grandson, and our log was delayed directly under the little waterfall. He definitely wanted to get out. You just never know what is going on to make a child want to escape.
@BrerOswald Considering that there have been guests who have exited the logs at different points over the years, it is pretty strange that some kind of restraint system was not added when they did it over. Would not be surprised if this happens soon.
@ShawnNOrlando Yes, people can certainly panic before the drop. Not sure how Disney will move forward to prevent this from happening again, but I'm certain they will need to make some changes.
