Has anyone ever had a hobbyist fall seriously ill while in her company?

What did you do?

Has anyone considered what to do in such an event?

For example, a staple of both bad comedy and worse melodrama is the hobbyist suffering some form of cardiac event while in the heat and throes of passion.  An example of what to do could be taking a course in CPR and administering same to the stricken hobbyist.  The Red Cross and other like-minded groups offers these courses gratis in many communities.

It both is and is not a laughing matter.  Personally, i'd like it to remain totally theoretical and at least slightly amusing.  But eventually, it's going to happen somewhere, to someone.

Anything to share and kick around?

Well, rest assured I am certified for both First Aid and CPR.  

Responsibility predominates all reactions.  Call 911, ascertain the situation, administer care, and try to get both of us dressed.  

Cover story?  He was receiving counseling

A couple of aspirin at the onset of a coranary thrombosis is often enough to stabilize the patient.

I carry them in my car all the time now after watching a show about it.

Get the chewable children's kind.

Forget dressing him. He's not gonna care what anyone thinks if he's dead. Do what would would with any friend - call 911 and do what you can to care for him. There's no way you're going to get a full-grown man dressed while he is unconscious and have him look like anything except a circus clown

I asked the same question to an escort I was seeing several years ago. Her answer was "first I'd take the money out of your wallet. The ambulance people would probably steal it anyway."

I love posts that make not only providers, but paramedics, look bad at the same time!

LOL
xxxooo
Beverly ;-*

Why should it be a problem to get help? As long as there is no money laying around, why would there be any trouble if it were discovered two people were having sex in a hotel room?

I recall an episode of "The Sopranos" where something like that occurs.

In the script it was referred to as, no kidding, "wallet autopsy."  Why not just "inventory" eludes me, but that's probably why my desk and filing cabinets are littered with rejected and unfinished attempts at fiction.  Sigh.

I do know CPR!

I'd say dump him out the window (not guaranteed to finish the job if below the 4th floor). A lot of hotel windows restrict how far they'll open, which is why I maintain a substantial beer gut. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. LOL

I believe this is how Red Sanders died in 1958. He was the UCLA football coach and led them to their only national championship in 1954. Big scandal in L.A. because LE hushed it up and the press gradually discovered the cover-up over the following week.

...told me she had that happen and the client was a priest.  She ran him to the hospital, called the parish, and vamoosed before the parish folks arrived.

about having a tree in my yard that is fertilized by all the penises (penis plural?) I've killed.  LOL.  No one has actually died in my presence, although I've left a few in need of a LONG nap. (grin)

Seriously, I have had a couple of incidents.  In one, the gent got too hot, had too much to drink, and passed out twice.  Once I got him cooled down he was fine...so no need for outside help.  Another time, after we were finished he reached for his bottle of nitroglycerine.  As far as I know he is fine today.

I often joke that I would get dressed and call 911 from the lobby on my cell phone, but I am first-aid and CPR certified, and being who I am, I would find it impossible to leave someone in that condition and walk away.  Dressed or not, you're still going to get asked what he was doing when the heart attack occurred, as well as any health history you might be aware of.  Kind of awkward, but easy enough to make a quick get away once the paramedics arrive if you're dressed and ready to go to avoid questions you can't answer.

I doubt seriously that paramedics would care.
They are there to save lives not arrest anyone or make any moral judgments.

Maybe once the patient was stabilised they may inquire but I think they would be more concerned with getting him stable and to hospital than prying into whether he was with his secretary, a woman he met in the bar, his girlfriend or an escort when the heart attack happened.

You would probably get asked more questions by the 911 operator, but Police and Fire have different operators so that isn't even too much of a worry, they also will just want the information required to assist the patient.

getting arrested.  But having been involved in more than one emergency or two, I know that they do ask questions that are medically relevant..such as medical history, current medications and such.  I was speaking more in terms of being embarrassed at being found in an intimate position with someone you know nothing about...including his age, next of kin and such.  

Questions from the 911 operator are best fielded by hanging up once the call for help has been made.  Again, not worried about being arrested.

Last year on tour a regular of mine had a heart attack while he was with me. I spent the night in the ER with him. Until this past February (when he ended up in the hospital again) I was still listed as his emergency contact. I think he has changed that now

That's gotta be scary for you both. But its awfully cool that you stayed with him in the ER. That probably kept him more relaxed than if he were dealing with it by himself.

Yes, he appreciated it and I was happy to be there for him.
