Our thoughts are with you, Fabrice

We don’t know exactly what’s inside our body; only god knows whether all our organs are functioning well inside. The EPL fans are saddened with the collapse of Fabrice Muamba on the pitch when his team played against Spurs on last Saturday. He was suffering from cardiac arrest and collapsed out of the sudden. Even the team doctor was saying that it was miraculous to have Fabrice staying alive after being in-effect dead for 78 minutes. 

I can’t imagine it sometimes, how could a seemingly healthy, young and physically fit footballer fall ill due to heart problems but things like this happen though not very often. We can only pray for his speedy recovery. Fabrice is a fighter on and off the pitch and hopefully one day he will be running on the football field again. Although things like this happened far away from our country but I guess thousands and thousands of football fans in this country will be saddened by such incident. We are entertained by all this brilliant guys through the one of the most watchable football league in the world. 

Probably Fabrice is a bit lucky to be in England, or to be playing with such a caring team like Bolton. The team doctor had said that 15 defibrillator shocks had failed to get the 23-year-old’s heart beating in the hour after he collapsed on the pitch, and it was altogether 78 minutes of heart stop-beating before Fabrice reached the hospital. Probably he was lucky that a consultant cardiologist at the London hospital who was at White Hart Lane as a spectator at that time ran on to the pitch to help. Fabrice can survive because the team and doctors never give up on him; they tried their level best to bring him back. Such spirits and determinations are truly commendable. These are the finest example of footballer, coach, doctors and good Samaritans. 

Get well soon, Fabrice, our thoughts are with you.
