A miracle at sea

We talk about a miraculous rescue at sea where a 51-year-old female passenger on the Carnival Luminosa suffered stroke-like symptoms. The US Coast Guard, battling 40-mile-per-hour winds, deployed a Jayhawk helicopter piloted by an aviator on his first life-saving mission. The passenger was successfully airlifted to Mendocino Hospital, where she received urgent care and is now stable. As a lawyer who sues cruise lines, I highlight the challenges of treating strokes on ships due to lack of CT scans, and applaud the Coast Guard and onboard medical team for their heroic efforts.
