Maui County police says the late state health director Loretta Fuddy died due to cardiac arrhythmia as a result of stress after a Makani Kai Air plane crashed off of Molokai last month.
An arrhythmia is a problem with the rate or rhythm of the heartbeat.
Fuddy's death has been ruled as accidental.
On Dec. 11, the plane lost power off of Kalaupapa. Nine people were on board the plane including Fuddy. The pilot and seven other passengers survived the crash.
The pilot and a passenger who swam to shore have said Fuddy appeared fine while bobbing in the water after everyone exited the plane and waited for help to arrive.
Fuddy's brother, Lewis Fuddy, says she was healthy and didn't have any known heart problems.

Did you have any weird dreams during that time? I had an acquaintance who almost died (actually did flat-line numerous times) and then was put in a medically induced coma for a month. (some kind of septic infection that started with flu-like symptoms). I asked him about what he remembered during the month he was unconscious and his heart stopping. He said he had really STRANGE dreams. *(he is young and this was before Obamacare)
I am with you there. Just about all of them. The Clinton years changed it, and it has exploded under “the One”.
Indeed!
There was that guy (ex. military?) found in a dumpster days after he went missing.
You do have a point.
I see you have one, too. Is *skeptical* a color?
Nothing like that, it only took a few minutes.
Neither did Andrew Breitbart...
Wheeler ?
Look into Harold Washington s death compare it to Breitbart’s and Fuddy s

You would be correct from my unfortunate experience. They guessed with my relative that it was arrhythmia which caused a stroke. Or the stroke and it’s location caused the arrhythmia. They didn’t really know.
If I had been her family, and knowing the problem with the BC that she certified, I would have had a private autopsy done or had a privately paid medical examiner in the room?
That’s good.
Most people with a vein full of hypodermic needle air don’t.
Not well. Yeah, she skeered too easy. I believe that... not.
Let’s guess...Cremation
100%
yes, Wheeler was who I was thinking of.
Probably cooking her up right now.
‘How do you detect an arrhythmia AFTER death?’
Good question. Here’s what I found re: autopsies & arrhythmia:

Dear ED, thank you for your question [re: detecting arrhythmia during an autopsy]. It’s difficult to answer your question in this forum since we can only give general information. When someone dies of sudden death, an electrical disturbance of the heart called an arrhythmia is most often considered to be the cause. However, an arrhythmia cannot be detected after death since the heart has to be electrically active to diagnose an arrhythmia. An ECG must be done to confirm an arrhythmia, but that is usually not possible before someone dies of sudden death without warning signs. Thus, arrhythmias are usually a diagnosis of exclusion. There are certain cardiac abnormalities that are associated with an arrhythmia, but many people who have arrhythmias have structurally normal hearts. Thus, if you have further questions, I suggest that you contact the medical examiner involved in the autopsy.
I hope this information is useful. Information provided in the heart forum is for general purposes only. Only your physician can provided specific diagnoses and therapies. Feel free to write back with further questions. Good luck!

It would be believable except everyone said she appeared fine.
