HORRY COUNTY, N.C. — A Horry County man is asking for prayers after his wife suffered a cardiac arrest early Sunday morning, ABC affiliate WPDE reported.
Andrew and Alexis Prue were in Jacksonville, Florida, for a Tennessee Titans game, sharing photos of the outing hours before being hospitalized.
“They put her on the stretcher, and she looked at me and she said, ‘Andrew, I love you so much. I think I’m going to die.’ I said ‘no you’re not. We’re gonna make it through it,’” Andrew Prue, of Grand Strand, recalled.
The parents of 15-month-old India are asking the community for prayer and support. Alexis Prue’s heart stopped beating for three minutes before she was resuscitated.
