A doctor who began CPR on the woman killed in Saturday's shooting at a Southern California synagogue fainted when he realized that the person he was trying to save was his wife.
Lori Gilbert-Kaye, 60, died of injuries she sustained in the shooting at Chabad of Poway near San Diego. Three others were hurt.
Gilbert-Kaye is believed to have thrown herself in front of Rabbi Yisroel Goldstein, possbily saving his life. Goldstein was injured after suffering a gunshot wound to his hand.
The San Diego Union-Tribune reports that Gilbert-Kayes husband, a physician, was in the synagogue when the gunshots started.

I had a friend who quit as an EMT immediately after having to do the same thing (and fail) to two of his best friends after a car accident. It is a terrible thing to ever have to do.
Omg

Please Gd comfort him as you comfort all mourners. What an absolute horror.
that saying is beautiful. Thank you.
I had to do it on my dad, too.
Same result.
You did what you to, and things happen outside of our control.
I have aided friends, no family as of yet, and I’m grateful that I haven’t had to.
I realize that.
I did the best I could but the heart attack was too severe.
“The souls of the just are in the hand of God, and no torment shall touch them.
They seemed, in the view of the foolish, to be dead,
and their passing away was thought an affliction,
and their going forth from us, utter destruction.
But they are in peace.
For if before men, indeed, they be punished,
yet is their hope full of immortality;
Chastised a little, they shall be greatly blessed,
because God has tested them, and found them worthy of Himself.”
—Wisdom 3:1-5
I hope to never go down that road. The way things are going these days, it’s more likely to be opposing globalism.
