I don't believe that is what I stated or implied at all. I was responding to your false claim regarding the effectiveness of CPR. Your post is below. I believe you missed the point of my post entirely. Facts from studies are not useless. I was responding to your generalization about the effectiveness of CPR based on your one experience.
Your original post is below.

My own father was kept alive for more than 15-minutes by nurses doing CPR until his heart started beating again after being shocked repeatedly. He didn't suffer brain damage and lived another 17 years.
RZ, by doing nothing at all, did hasten the child's brain death.
