Eighteen-year-old Claire Cordua had just graduated from Westview High School in Rancho Penasquitos. She was spending a leisurely summer hanging out with friends, tutoring, babysitting and getting ready to head off to college. All that changed on July 17, when Claire suffered a massive stroke. Her life was saved twice that day--once by her quick-thinking boyfriend and, then again, by a new physician who had yet to officially start work at Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla. This story -- which aired on KGTV Channel 10 on Aug. 13 -- details Claire's life- threatening experience.
