🕊️ Kaitlynn Saunders, a vibrant 15-year-old from Baytown, collapsed suddenly and tragically passed away. Initial reports called it a “heart attack,” but youth almost never suffer heart attacks. It was likely sudden cardiac arrest (SCA)—an electrical failure in the heart. SCA is not a “one-in-a-million” event. An estimated 23,000 children die from SCA each year in the U.S. It’s often the first sign of an undetected heart condition. 💔 Every child deserves preventive heart screening. Every adult needs to know how to respond. #SuddenCardiacArrestInYouth #LifesavingSkills #RecognizeAndRespondToSCA #CallPushShock #CPR #AED #ParentHeartWatch (fb)

🚨 When their 2-year-old son went into sudden cardiac arrest, Illinois parents Stephanie and Kris Thomas sprang into action. Stephanie, a clinical dietitian, performed CPR while Kris called 911. Their quick response saved their son's life. He was later diagnosed with Brugada syndrome, a heart condition. 💡 This powerful reminder shows why every parent, teacher, and coach should be trained to recognize and respond to sudden cardiac arrest. #RecognizeAndRespondToSCA #CallPushShock #CPR #AED #ProtectYoungHeartsFromSCA (fb)
