Saving a Life at 30,000 Feet

daily-dose-of-uplift-2

A heart doctor from Oklahoma saved a guy’s life on a recent flight from Uganda to Amsterdam.  A man on board was having chest pains.  And lucky for him, cardiologist T.J. Trad was there.  Even luckier, Trad was on his way home from a medical mission in Uganda and had a bunch of supplies with him.

He ended up giving the guy five medications doctors give to treat a heart attack.  Trad also had a credit card-sized EKG device with him.  He said he always has it on him now, ever since HE had a heart attack last year.
