Another life lost without any warning signs

In Pasedena, TX - another life has been lost. Will you wait to have your heart screened before it's too late? Will you have your child's heart screened before it's too late?

16-year-old Eric Medina Jr. was a Junior at the high school and was in the basketball program. He collapsed around 11:30am Friday while running track during P.E. class. While no one knows the reason for Eric Medina Jr's death yet, we can only assume at this time that SCA (Sudden Cardiac Arrest) has struck again.

Sources say that Eric had a full school physical and had no known heart conditions, prime example of why we all need to have our hearts screened.

"We seen him on the ground they were doing CPR they did it for like 10 minutes they kept doing it and doing it I don't understand what was going on it was just a real shock," sources say.

Our hearts go out to the family of Eric Medina Jr. and hope that people pay attention to the heart screening opportunities that are out there. Contact Living for Zachary to find out more about heart screenings in youth.
