A local surfer posted this to the web today:
"I was surfing first point last Friday around 8 or 9 am, when I had strange sudden pain in my chest and throat. Two surfers helped me get out of the water, and the lifeguard called paramedics.
I thought maybe I was having an allergic reaction because of the rain and I’d wait it out. The lifeguard talked me into riding with the paramedics.
Found out at the hospital I’d had an aortic dissection and would have died if I’d waited around. I had emergency open heart surgery that night and made it.
I’d like to find these guys and try to express my gratitude. Hopefully we can paddle out together in 6 months."
