The only people who have said she had a heart attack were reporter who misstated the facts.

She had a cardiac arrest due to electrolyte deficiency.

Not a heart attack, but it is a very common error to make by laymen in the media and public.

When I made a similar correction on another post I was told I was being "picky picky".

Can you imagine people being picky when discussing life and situations! ;-)

Exactly correct.

That and many posters on this thread. My POST was a response to a poster claiming she had a heart attack.
