    Such a beautiful and classy lady. So sad she had to go through losing him but what an awesome foundation. It has brought so much awareness. to the condition. I actually had a SCAD a few years back- A Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection. It is not the same thing but it is also rare and often misdiagnosed. Anytime you can bring awareness is a blessing.

  • @ladyluck3984

    I can't remember what year it was, maybe 1998 or 9. I was working at le chateau in downtown Vancouver, in December. I noticed the store got quiet and people began whispering. I looked up, when this man turned to me with a dress in his hand and asked me if it came in a particular size. I said I could check the back for it but then the woman that was with him grabbed his arm saying, "we don't have time we will be late for the premiere", as she dragged him out the entrance way. As she did so he yelled back to me waving his hand, " thanks anyways!"
    It happened so fast that it took me a moment to realize it was John and Amy. I often think of him and was so heartbroken when he passed.

    I've had an aortic dissection twice. They are called SCAD. My heart has stopped each time, and now I have a defibrillater. These things are insanely scary and the fact that the medical world doesn't know much about it , it's even scarier. I talk about my condition to people all the time to spread awareness. John Ritter could have been here if the doctors know what they are dealing with.

    • @Alphacentauri819
      @Alphacentauri819 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      So…here you are, talking about a celebrities death (which happened almost 20 years ago). You were so affected by it, and didn’t even know him. Yet, your judgment of Nicole Brown’s sisters (and that was 30 years ago) seems even more hypocritical in this light. Wow.
      Your egocentric stance and lack of perspective of others (and their experience) is very profoundly sad and concerning.
      Do you have dismissive avoidant attachment, ASD1, or ?

    • @texan903
      @texan903 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @Alphacentauri819 you're comparing my opinion on Ritter's death, as you say, 20 years ago to Nicole Simpson's murder 30 years ago. I find that to be a reach, but if it makes you feel better in trying to diagnose or prove a ridiculous point, go for it.
      You've jumped to conclusions and have held to it like a dog with a bone. Something I have noticed with you is that you tend to hype and exaggerate details to satisfy your thirst for certain questions rather than simply asking questions for clarification. Doing that has gotten people punished unjustly for things they're innocent of. Again, you are making assumptions, jumping to conclusions that were never expressed. I kindly ask you not to do that where I am concerned. This is inconsiderate and unkind. Your assumptions are also untrue. I'm politely asking for you to stop creating false narratives about me.
      If you have your licenses to diagnose and treat mental illness, I can consider your practice for helping me get diagnosed if there are conditions present. Otherwise, keep your judgments to yourself. Your assessment of me, after you decided to dig and investigate me to comment on an entirely separate thread from the one you initially responded to me on, is advice that you should take for yourself.

    Lots of famous people died aged 27 (Amy Winehouse etc) and culturally this is now referred to as ‘The 27 Club’. What I’ve now observed is that, sadly, a ‘54 Club’ has started too - people like John Ritter and Australian chef Bill Granger who died on Christmas Day, also 54. So tragic to lose them all.

    The fact that doctors have such prejudice toward minorities and women in just proundly appalling. I've lived it. I had a rare condition called autoimmune encephalitis and went eleven months before receiving the steroids to save my life. Only then by running in to a doctor's wife by accident out for a blood draw. So, don't go into to an ER or doctor's office thinking they'll break their backs trying to solve your problem because 90% of the time, they won't. Be your own advocate (if you're lucid) or have a family memeber or friend do it. Research and don't give up because that's what makes the difference when the doctor is telling you "it's just in your head." Well, with encephalitis, they weren't completly wrong, lol. John would be so happy that he's saving lives and so proud of Amy for fighting back.

    I wish she'd stop spreading misinformation. A physician examines the patient correctly. The patient isn't responsible for figuring out what's wrong and telling the doctor. Every interview she does, she tries to give the message basically that doctors don't know what they're doing. Unfortunately it happened with her husband, that doesn't mean that is the norm.

      I had an aortic dissection and I have a genetic mutation that contributed to the condition. My cardiologist said I will probably have to educate my primary care physician and any emergency staff because the genetic condition is so rare. Also insurance won't always cover the scans that could cause an abdominal aortic aneurysm until it's too late. Advocating for yourself and your family is a good thing

    • @EnviroArtiste86

      her message is advocate for yourself. doctors don't know everything. sometimes they don't know the full story or think to check for certain things. it's not misinformation, it's standing up for yourself when you feel a certain way. i wish i had done that many times i was in a dr's office, but i was always to scared and ready to run away never knowing what was wrong with me. my grandmother was in a routine surgery that was botched and she died. doctors make mistakes. to speak up and be knowledgeable is not a crime.
