A mum who started experiencing chest pains following a meal at an Indian restaurant confused chest pains for heartburn - when in reality she was having a cardiac arrest. Liz Bambroffe and her husband Lee had left the restaurant after an evening dining out when she started to complain of chest pains.
The pain progressed throughout the car journey as the couple were en route to pick up their children from Formby where family were looking after them. Whilst inside the house, Lee collected their daughter and picked up heartburn tablets for Liz who stayed in the car.
Unbeknownst to Lee, Liz had suffered a cardiac arrest, the Liverpool ECHO reports. Liz's sister Catherine, who had come outside was shocked to find her sister "slumped" inside the car.
