    Hey guys, I don't normally do this but I figured I'd reach out to the racing family on this one. I have a coworker that I have become good friends with over the past several years that had something happen to him that we all think could never happen to us. It was just a normal day like any other when he gets a call from one of his wife's coworkers & tells him that she passed out at work & isn't breathing & she is being taken to the hospital. He leaves work & arrives at the hospital to find out that his wife's heart had stopped beating & they were in the process of trying to revive her. The doctors told him that they had gotten her heart beating again but she had basically died for 15min. She had no prior symptoms or complications, she suffered what they call "Instant Cardiac Death". There's a less than 50% chance that people that experience this recover but she made it. She isn't completely in the clear yet & it's going to be a long road to recovery, she still doesn't remember that day at all.

    I know a lot of you on here have wives & kids & would probably think that nothing like this could ever happen to a perfectly healthy person. If you would, keep them & their family in your thoughts and prayers.

    If any of you guys are in the Raleigh area, they are having a bike/car show fundraiser for her & the family to help with medical bills.
