Whether you have kids or plan to have kids in the future, you should know that you're going to clean up someone else's bodily fluids and waste. So when the two men got a chance to reconnect with Donna in tow, emotions ran high and CBS caught it on video. Doctors told the referee and his fiancé, Donna, that he had a " widow maker" heart attack, which is often fatal. Turns out Copeland wasn't just a basketball player, he was also a firefighter, and his quick actions saved Sculli's life. "I had never witnessed someone just collapse, but I knew what had to be done," Copeland told CBS. He was quickly surrounded by other referees, but his fall got the attention of Myles Copeland, who recognized Sculli was unresponsive and immediately began CPR. Sculli was keenly watching the game between Toledo Glass City and the Jamestown Jackals when he went from following the players down the court to sprawled out on the ground. Semi-pro basketball referee John Sculli found himself on the receiving end of an unexpected heart attack, right in the middle of reffing a game. There are some things people are never quite prepared to experience, and a heart attack is high on that list. “I had water in my backpack, but tea is my favorite, and I’m glad I can charge up my things now.” It’s OK 'cause I was thirsty anyways,” he wrote. “I went into a Chinese restaurant and bought tea. The Redditors suggested he go to a nearby restaurant to charge his phone, and Andy thought it was a great idea. There are two right near First Ave.”Īndy did have one slight problem-his phone was losing battery and he was afraid he’d miss a call from his cousin to meet up. “When it’s nicer, I like to sit in the plazas to wait. I sit with my favorite music and do a sudoku puzzle or two or read a book,” Comprehensive_Ad4689 wrote. “I’m autistic, and I feel the same way! It’s totally okay to wait in the train station.

Reddit user Comprehensive_Ad4689, who also has autism, suggested he wait at the subway station.

The request brought together a group of New Yorkers to help Andy feel safe and comfortable while waiting for his cousin. "I was afraid to ask people walking around so I asked the Reddit AskNYC." "I went to the Library and restaurants and when it got dark, my cousin told me to wait for him on a street, but I wasn’t sure where to wait, and I got nervous," he later told Upworthy.
