| ‘If it wasn’t for CPR and AED, I would be dead’: Lakewood man stresses importance of lifesaving training after Damar Hamlin incident WKYC: Stephen Sroka, adjunct professor at the School of Medicine, shared his experience of having his life saved thanks to CPR and an AED technology and training following a massive heart attack—something he said is similar to the situation that Buffalo Bills football player, Damar Hamlin, experienced. “As soon as I saw him go down, I said to my wife, ‘that looks like a cardiac arrest,’ because that’s what happened to me,” Sroka said. “I should be dead; I am so blessed to be here and if it wasn’t for CPR and AED, I would be dead.” |
