From Grand Ledge, Mich.: A 14-year-old boy's sudden cardiac death at football practice led his family to advocate for automated external defibrillators in schools. The boy was a multi-talented student who participated in various activities. He went into cardiac arrest during practice, and despite the presence of AEDs and CPR-trained staff, he did not survive.

His parents received a phone call about the incident, and an ambulance was called. The school where the incident occurred had been designated a "My Heart Safe School" due to the presence of AEDs and trained coaches.

Further details about the incident and the family's mission are available from the source.
