If a client has a heart attack during session, the SP should call 911. Even if the person dies, an autopsy can be done to determine the cause of death. As long as the person you’re with is a decent human being there’s no need to worry.
Many years ago I had a massage session with an SP. She told me a story of a client having a heart attack during a session. Naturally, she called for an ambulance. The paramedics came and took the guy away, totally cool about it. No personal questions were asked.
Obviously the gal should call 911....pretty ruthless not to.
I knew a woman who had almost the exact same experience. A guy had an attack at her incall.
911 despatcher talked her through CPR, the ambulance guys said she definitely saved his life.
Thank you all for the responses. I must admit that I was quite caught up with the short story I read that I completely forgot about 911 as an option. In the story, the client was already dead when the escort noticed, and she was afraid to contact the police because she's illegal immigrant, that her first response was to run out and ask her other escort friend for help.
I remember when I worked and was living in North Vancouver reading about how a senior had a heart attack at a Skytrain platform and he dropped to the ground writhing in pain.Nobody did anything other than step over him to get on the Skytrain to get home....fucking disgusting selfish behaviour.I know how to perform CPR and if called upon I would do so....
If something like that happens, I'd push the emergency red button/use the emergency phone on the platform, or pressing the yellow strip/intercom if it happens in skytrain. I believe this way the help will arrive faster than calling 911, which some time might be wasted on explaining the location and waiting for dispatcher to coordinate help.
Sadly compassion in our Society is going the way of the dodo bird,especially with regards to veterans......just my 2 cents.
I don't believe that compassion is completely gone. I think that media focuses a lot more on negativity side of our society that make it seem like no one cares about anyone. When I was communting on Canada Line, I witnessed a guy just dropped down on the ground, fainted, the crowd were responsive and contacted transit police right away. They all move away to make room for the guy to lie down and clear a path for the police to help the guy away. I thought it was quite impressive, given it was jampacked during rush hour after 5pm. Does something like that get reported? Nope.
same as if I saw some nutjob with a semi-automatic rifle shooting people I would act and use my truck as a weapon to either run the bastard over or pin him against a building regardless to the risk of my own safety.If I could save anyone from death in that situation especially if it is many people it is a rational transaction.
Even if you knew the people you saved planned to vote Liberal next month?
It is a noble thing to be able to help and willing to help when you see others are in need of help. Not everyone is ready or had proper training to react like that. And given the urgency of the said situation, I'd assume political difference would be the least of anyone's concern.
