Sitting down to take roll one morning, the room began to spin.
The electrical systems in Lifetime Nutrition and Wellness teacher Deliese Nusser’s heart began working backwards, disrupting the blood flow through her body.
“It was a normal day in class,” Senior Kolton Parchman said then she started saying she was hot and dizzy.
Kolton than went down to the nurses office and brought the nurse back to class.
Mrs. Kirby rushed Nusser to her husband, who in turn took her to Kell West Hospital.
Nusser’s pulse was at 199 and her blood pressure could not be found. They had to stop her heart for two seconds to get things back on track.
Nusser said a similar thing happened six years ago, and she thinks that the problem is genetic. Nusser doesn’t drink alcohol or smoke and has little caffeine.
The probable cause of the problem? Stress.
Nusser said there wasn’t much stress in her life either, but taking roll on T.E.A.M.S. can be stressful. Now though Nusser said she’s doing fine.
“I’m still kicking,” Nusser said.
