A 12-year-old Arizona girl suffered sudden cardiac arrest while playing soccer — and was given lifesaving CPR by a parent.
Pyper Midkiff was just minutes into soccer practice Thursday night when she collapsed, KTVK reported.
A teammate’s mom, who is also an ICU nurse, rushed onto the field and administered CPR until the ambulance arrived, Pyper’s father, Matt, told the outlet.
Matt said he was coaching a different team nearby when he was alerted and rushed over to see his daughter being resuscitated.
The star soccer player lost her pulse again in the ambulance and was flown to Phoenix Children’s Hospital, where she was listed in stable condition.
It was unclear how long she was without a pulse.
