Unwavering Hope

It was a trauma at the end knowing that two parents suffered so much anguish and sadness. Five weeks, the Van Ryn family did all they can do to stay wide-awake if possible with the thought that one day Laura their daughter would wake up from coma!

It was Whitney Cerak who was in the hospital bed that survived from the car accident and Laura Van Ryn has died!

May The Good Lord bless these families and I hope they will have peace of mind later after two years had passed. Also, may God bless Laura Van Ryn soul and rest in peace.

What a tragic incident! I cried!

ICD Implantation

ICD Implantation
The implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) is a device used to treat dangerously fast heart rates that occur in the lower chambers of the heart (the main pumping chambers). The ICD system looks much like a pacemaker. The device is implanted under the skin and attached to one or more leads, which are placed in or on the heart muscle.

Illustration: ICD implantation. Image of implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) implanted in heart. The implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) detects arrhythmias (both bradyarrhythmia and tachyarrhythmia) and delivers electrical therapy (pacing pulses or defibrillation therapy) as necessary. When not needed, the ICD merely monitors the heart without delivering any electrical energy. Click on the heart to see an enlarged view.

Heart Disease

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the United States and is a major cause of disability. Almost 700,000 people die of heart disease in the U.S. each year. That is about 29% of all U.S. deaths. Heart disease is a term that includes several more specific heart conditions. The most common heart disease in the United States is coronary heart disease, which can lead to heart attack.

The risk of coronary heart disease can be reduced by taking steps to prevent and control those adverse factors that put people at greater risk for heart disease and heart attack. Additionally, knowing the signs and symptoms of heart attack, calling 911 right away, and getting to a hospital are crucial to the most positive outcomes after having a heart attack. People who have had a heart attack can also work to reduce their risk of future events.
