Cheating Death: CPR To The Rescue

How do you thank a stranger for saving your life? That’s the question Andrea D’Amore-Braver ponders since her brush with death.

D’Amore-Braver experienced cardiac arrest during dinner, and two strangers took immediate CPR action until medics arrived.

The quick-thinking men acted swiftly and smartly enough that D’Amore-Braver suffered no brain damage either.

Over 300,000 people die each year from cardiac arrest, and many who do make it through, suffer irreversible brain damage.

D’Amore-Braver was one of the lucky ones. She’s not sure how to thank the two strangers for giving her a second chance.

Hip-Hop CPR

CPR is going HIP-HOP, hitting the mash-up fans of DJ Earworm.

Earworm agreed to team up with The AHA to promote CPR to his fans because of a horrible situation that left him feeling helpless.

“I had to administer CPR and it didn’t turn out so well.The thing that I remember very distinctly was that moment of panic of ‘What am I supposed to do?’The fact the American Heart Association has now made the message so much clearer and easier to learn and remember takes away that whole hesitation factor,”said Earworm.

DJ Earworm is known for his hip mash-ups, and as part of the National CPR Awareness week, he plans to create “Hands-Only CPR Mash-Up,” with a mix of tunes that includes favs like Salt-N-Pepa’s “Push It.”

Earworm agreed to be involved to raise social awareness through music. He calls it ‘Healthy Hollywood.

About 420,000 people die outside of the hospital every year. Be a hero. Learn Hands-Only CPR.
