Dozier’s Pulse Stopped In Baghdad: “She’s Lucky She Got Here When She Did”

At one point during Dozier’s treatment at a U.S. military hosipital, her pulse stopped, CBSNews.com reports. A doctor told correspondent Elizabeth Palmer that Dozier “didn’t have a heartbeat. She was as sick as you get.”

Capt. Tiffany Fasco said: “Her blood pressure dropped to a point where we could barely see what it was anymore, we could barely assess it. Basically, it means that she was going down, and she did pretty hard. But we were able to get her back by giving her fluids and medications.”

A doctor at the military hospital added: “She’s lucky she got here when she did. If it had taken longer for her to get to the hospital, it may not have come to this outcome at this point.”
