Person who called 911 for deceased former US attorney Jessica Aber 'refused' to perform CPR

[Ms. Toad]

53. A friend of mine died from a heart attack - for 13 minutes

While playing tennis. CPR was performed during that time until an ambulance arrived with a defibrillator and they were able to revive him. He was older (60-ish), but was in good health by all measures which are normally checked at annual exams.

His cholesterol was within normal ranges for all components routinely tested for. But routine cholesterol scanning is a blunt tool and relies on averages to catch the more routine types of troublesome cholesterol. So he and his doctors were completely unaware he was dangerously close to death from atherosclerosis. He had high apo(b) and lp(a), subclasses of ldl which is known to be highly associated with atherosclerosis (and heart attacks). The predisposition to elevated apo(b) adn lp(a) is genetic.
