## Resource

An 18-year-old basketball player’s life was saved after a sudden aortic dissection—caused by chest pain and breathing trouble—prompted an emergency open-heart surgery within 30 minutes of symptoms. The medical team raced to perform a nine-hour procedure, and his mother credits quick action by coaches and trainers for saving his life. Now in ICU, he’s already showing signs of recovery, buoyed by family and friends. His story is a powerful reminder: chest pain is never a minor issue—seek help immediately.
