Tenhigh Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 (edited) 1 hour ago, Beck Water said: Just a gentle reminder that you, and you, and you (looking around the board) can all show agency. I would not for a moment diminish the power of Faith and Prayer, but as a friend of mine once said - "sometimes Prayer works best with tools in your hands and skill to use them". Learn CPR, and support the public availability of AEDs at schools, amateur sporting events, professional sporting venues, libraries, and yes, houses of Worship. Maybe we start a gofundme to make sure all Buffalo and Cincinnati area schools and sports fields are all equipped with AEDs?

Since1981 Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 NYS often near pool, field house, gym. “Should be 1-3 min away”. NYS has regs. “nurse poll indicating that their schools had between 2 and 4 functioning AEDs, and nearly 96% of schools having at least one AED.” 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The need for them on the field is exceedingly rare. CPR done correctly can suffice until someone shocks the kid Serious question: Is there such a thing as a non-portable AED? The ones we've had at work and through the little league were all portable. Other than a hospital setting I can't imagine someone in need being brought to an AED 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SinceThe70s Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 21 minutes ago, Beck Water said: Does that hold true in all NYS schools, including those in areas where vandalism/theft on school property are things? But I was more thinking of my kid's school, where some of the athletic fields were quite a long haul from the school buildings. On the wall outside the gym doesn't help you on the baseball diamond. I can't speak to the law, but as a practical matter expecting someone to locate and retrieve an AED in time during an emergency sounds specious. Probably OK in a reasonably sized office setting.

Any and all defibrillators are portable I have no idea what the school rules are, but the general use is a concern. If there's only one then you can't put it on the soccer field if there's also a lacrosse game going on - and even if there's one event you wouldn't want to take it from it's known location in case it's needed in the building. 4 minutes ago, Mr. WEO said: well any AED would have to be retrieved from wherever it is.

Unlikely a person would drop within 20 feet of where one would happen to be stationed I live in a community that lost a high schooler to a lacrosse incident years ago. The parents dedicated themselves to AED awareness, training and availability - the result was the local little league had enough AED's to go around and the coach of the home team had to check out an AED for every game which sat in the dugout. A point of emphasis during the training was how important the proximity of the AED was. As a practical matter having one is better than none, but it would be great to see some portion of the 8 mill spent on equipping some communities with AED's and funding training. Probably easier said then done though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhoTom Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 (edited) 13 hours ago, Kiva said: Bills fans are bitter we were screwed out of one seed because of an injury. He spent 1 week in the hospital. Did they diagnose him with a heart condition? Or was it just a fluke? It’s great that he’s healthy, but I understand the frustration and bitterness towards him and the nfl. Correction - we lost the opportunity to keep the #1 seed. If we had lost to the Bengals, and there's a 50/50 chance that we would have, then we'd be the #3 seed and our road to the Super Bowl would once again go through KC. So one could argue that we weren't screwed, but we may have dodged a bullet. Either way, why would anyone have bitterness toward Damar?

I don't think you're talking to a normal fan here, though. I'm not sure about the 50/50 chance, but finishing the game certainly didn't present any guarantees. At the point where the game was suspended, Cincy was rolling down the field on our D and we had gotten stopped on 3rd down and left 4 points out there. And, we were down 2 DBs.

We honored the EMT’s, but maybe have them with the doctors lead the charge against the Dolphins. Then have a video from Damar to start the divisional. With any luck he can lead the charge for an AFCCG and stand on the sidelines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rusty shackleford Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 One thing that’s stuck with me through all this recently is just his recovery time. I can’t find the exact sound bite but I’m pretty sure it was during the doctors press conference when Damar was traveling home where they said this type of progress is normally measured in weeks and months, not days. It’s pretty remarkable that Damar is almost home just over a week after he flat lined on the field. It doesn’t matter the details of what you believe in, there’s someone or something out there watching over us. Positive energy/thoughts/prayers combined with perfect medical execution allowed Damar to be with us today. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commotio Cordis is what is sounds like from above statement if no underlying issue is truly present.

Mentally, probably not even if they were able to bulk up his chest padding so there was no chance of recurrence. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
