Robert Fensom says he is 'grateful to still be alive' after suffering a cardiac arrest.
By Mel Duffy & Olimpia ZagnatA man found unresponsive after a cardiac arrest said he was "grateful to still be alive" on being reunited with the ambulance staff who saved his life.
"The sounds coming from Rob were something I had never heard before and I started to become scared," she said. "Rob normally gets up at around 05:30 to take the dog out for a morning stroll at the nearby park, but on this particular morning he was just lying there, and I could hear him making strange gurgling noises," she said of her husband of 40 years."I decided to roll him over and that is when I could see Rob's face. One of his eyes was bulging open and it was just blankly staring at me, with the other eye closed shut.
Mrs Fensom began chest compressions, following the advice of East Midlands Ambulance Service emergency medical adviser Chloe Irving, who said: "Despite this being a very scary and distressing experience for Sue, she listened to my instructions, which will have no doubt given Robert a fighting chance until the ambulance crew arrived."
