20% of aortic dissections make it to a hospital -- of that 4% of that 20% survive. Aortic dissection is rare, and presents as a heart attack. John would have had to have been wheeled directly from the studio to an OR with cardiac surgeons -- and even then he probably would have only a 50-50 chance. This is like the main water pipe bursting on the street -- it's a fatal event in most cases.
I think it's funny that she didn't get a dime...it only took the jury 15 mins. to decide against her lawsuit, because doctors had warned him 2 years earlier that he had an enlarged aorta, and John did nothing about it.
Unfortunately, even if they found the aortic dissection, there would have been a very small chance of John living past that night. It's very sad, I hope this didn't sully his name too much, only the name of the greedy person who initiated this lawsuit. That was far too much money. RIP, I still think you were great.

Agreed! There was no reason for Ritter's wife to sue for millions of dollars. She saw an opportunity for greed...pure and simple.
