4 How brotherhood saved Rob Bowne s life They say timing is everything. In June 2014, not only was timing everything, it was the very thing that saved Rob Bowne s life. While on duty, Rob, a 27-year veteran of the Winnetka Fire Department, was working out and started experiencing chest pains. His colleagues on duty felt it was probably muscle related but decided it was best they hook him up to an EKG monitor. After analyzing the results, they did not see anything abnormal or concerning. Despite encouragement from the other men, Rob did not feel it was necessary to go to the hospital. Rob decided to stop his workout and take a shower, but his discomfort continued. The paramedics decided to hook him up for the second time and immediately confirmed Rob was having a heart attack. They quickly sprung into action, without any delay transporting him to Evanston Hospital. The guys on duty remembered that while on the ambulance they drove there in silence, scared of what might happen. No one knew what to say or think at this point. Once they arrived at the hospital, Rob was taken to the catheterization lab where the inclusion was removed and the pain subsided immediately. Rob has often thought about the other places he could have been when he had his heart attack. If he had been anywhere else, would he have called 911? Would he have gone to the Emergency Room? Would he have gone to Urgent Care? Would the outcome have been the same? Rob was lucky; lucky he was on duty at the firehouse when his heart attack occurred. Rob s cardiologist, Dr. Jason Robin credits the quick intervention of Rob s colleagues with his strong recovery. Rob s quick treatment was a factor in how healthy his heart looks today, noted Dr. Robin. Rob states I owe my life to my teammates. If it wasn t for them reacting so quickly and being there for me from beginning to end, I do not know where I would be today. Since having his heart attack, Rob has continued to work out both at the firehouse and at home. One thing that did change? His eating habits. You need to change, otherwise you ll have the same thing happen to you again. Rob said. Rob has been able to get back to his normal lifestyle. One of his favorite parts is being with his family and watching his daughter play sports. I feel very fortunate, Rob said. To learn more about Rob s story and see the full impact of the lifelong friendship he developed while in the hospital, be sure to visit our website, 4 (888)
