I was in the hospital in January following a heart attack.

I woke up one morning and was on my phone when the nurse came in.

"Were you asleep about an hour ago?"

"Yeah, why?"

"Your heart stopped for 8 seconds."

". . . Uh, thanks? I guess? I'm not sure what you want me to do with that information."

Never knew it happened.

And they're just checking on you an hour later?! Wow thanks.

Apparently it alerted at the nurses station but didn't set off any alarms in the room... or so I was told... I mean, I WAS asleep...
