One of Ezra's finest is counting his blessings this weekend: An improbable -- many say miraculous -- past few days will always accompany O'Gorman, even though he has little recollection of them. The recent Cornell graduate survived a freak accident in which he was severely shocked into cardiac arrest, while trying to rescue a dog that had jumped into an Eden farm pond.Ryan O'Gorman wasn't breathing Monday night. He had no pulse, and his heart hadn't beaten in 20 minutes. For all intents and purposes, he was dead. Yet on Friday afternoon, O'Gorman, 22, pulled a Cornell University baseball cap over his mop of dark curls and walked out of Mercy Hospital with a full future in front of him.
Is there anything a Cornellian can't do?
