Apologies if SEB
Tragic however, for such a young kid to die of a suspected heart attack. What makes it worse is he lost his mother not long back and she was quite young too.
For those who don’t know him, he was in One Direction, not that I’m a big fan of them, I just found this particularly shocking on the lad.
Really sad news. At 18 years old it makes me wonder if the cardiac arrest was through natural circumstances or not.

I hear ya but grief affects us in many waysI can't believe you just wrote that tbh.
A heart attack is not the same thing as a cardiac arrest.
So is cancer and pneumonia, doesn't make them the same thing.Worst case scenario is the same result though.
I knew that but I don’t know the differences. How did she die? Because I read it was a heart attack.A heart attack is not the same thing as a cardiac arrest.

This.A heart attack is caused by a blockage in the heart, usually a blood clot, a cardiac arrest is essentially an electrical failure of the heart when it goes into hyper-rapid rhythym.
People who have heart attacks don't usually lose consciousness, they have the classic acute pain in the heart and down the left arm, people who have cardiac arrests usually lose consciousness immediately.
People who have heart attacks don't usually die from them, people who have cardiac arrest usually die within small numbers of minutes.
A heart attack can cause cardiac arrest but most cardiac arrests are not caused by heart attacks.
AEDs are used to treat cardiac arrests by restoring the heart's regular rhythm, AEDs cannot treat heart attacks.
I believe this young lady died from a cardiac arrest.
My son who is 17 was taken to hospital last week with chest pains. Didn’t help though that he is a gym fanatic and taking the shite, unbeknown to me, that the younguns take eg caffeine tablets etcIt's more common than you think.
Have a look at the website of the charity CRY (Cardiac Risk in the Young)
I am doing some very modest fundraising for Cardiac Risk in the Young at the moment.This.
The Mail says heart attack repeatedly then says cause is being investigated. So it's probably not a heart attack.
Cases like these are lapped up by the tabloids because of the emotion and tragedy. This doesn't mean they know their facts.
