AN Irish dad has described the moment he walked into a room to find his 13-year-old daughter collapsed on the floor.

- BY NEIL SHAW

Sofia Chambers had appeared fine only minutes before but was now unconscious and unable to explain what was wrong when dad Pete found her.

The 48-year-old moved her into the recovery position and phoned for an ambulance, but it would be 35 minutes before she came round.

Pete said: “The morning was going as normal, and then I just found Sofia lying on her bedroom floor. It looked like she was fast asleep. I checked and she had a pulse but she was just lying there and was totally unresponsive.

“I called the ambulance, and the paramedics were on the line and told us to keep checking her vitals, which we did, and then she was taken to hospital.”

The experience in January this year was made more distressing by the fact that they had no idea what had caused it.

Doctors thought Sofia had simply fainted and were unconcerned. But two weeks later she had a fit at home in Co Down.
