Every state should
be required to
have these [AEDs]
in schools and
public places.
– Sheryl Shea, Kylee’s mom
SCA Survivor: Kylee Shea
In 2011, the world met Kylee Shea, a 7th-grader who
collapsed from an undiagnosed heart condition before
gym class. In fact, during NBC’s Today show, viewers
were shown dramatic surveillance footage of Shea
collapsing, and teachers responding to the unconscious
girl seconds later. Working together, the teachers
saved Kylee’s life with a Powerheart AED.
For many, this segment was a revelation: Average
people with little or no training could save lives with
AEDs. For others, this story was a reminder of how a
loved one or a friend suered a sudden cardiac arrest
and needed an AED to survive.
“If it wasn’t for this [AED] and for what they did, our
daughter still may be here today but not the Kylee we
know today,” Kylee’s dad, Mike Shea, told the Today show.
AEDs, while mandated in Texas public schools, are not
required nationwide. As Kylee’s mom Sheryl Shea
explained to Today’s Matt Lauer, “I think it should be a
nationwide mandate. Every state should be required to
have these in schools and public places.
