Photographer Tony Taylor was leaving a football match he felt a sharp pain in his shoulder. He was having a heart attack. (thankful) our volunteers were standby.
"As I walked to my car I was on the phone to my wife when I (realize) I was really dizzy. I woke up on the floor and had been having a really vivid dream, I thought I was asleep. I didn't feel any pain. I felt fine. I actually felt really upbeat. When they put me in the ambulance someone said 'you were (die) five minutes ago'."
Tony, 53, (suffer) a heart attack. Luckily, our volunteers Colin and Matt were nearby. They saw Tony (fall) and performed CPR and mouth-to-mouth resuscitation in the stadium car park. Other volunteers ran for vital (equip) and the pair worked on Tony until the ambulance arrived.
Tony spent 33 days in hospital after a triple heart-bypass. When he (send) home, his one priority was to meet Matt and Colin.
"The guys are (hero)," he said. "Knowing I wouldn't be here without them is a strange feeling, and all I could think about was getting out and thanking them."
