Opinion: Resident grateful for kindness of stranger during heart attack

On Sunday, Jan. 20, a year ago, I had a serious heart attack at the deli section in Murphy’s Market, Taunton Forge, Medford.

I didn’t even know I was having a heart attack!

If it weren’t for the quick and compassionate actions of a fellow shopper, I might not be here today. She quietly took complete control of the situation and made sure I was taken to the emergency room at the nearest hospital.

Having asked for her name, she told me “Lorraine; I’m an RN.” When I got home from the hospital three weeks later (after double bypass surgery) I began my search to find “Lorraine, RN.” No luck.

I wish I could pay back her kindness in person, but now the least I can do is to give this public thank you to a lady who was the consummate nurse and made a real difference in my life.
