This line from an NPR report on Mr Hamlin's progress (boldfaced by me) got a cackle from me and the missus...
Doctors said Hamlin has been walking since Friday, and has also been eating regular food and undergoing therapy. They said he was on what medical professionals say is a (very normal)or even (accelerated trajectory) in his recovery from cardiac arrest - which is considered a life-threatening event.
