Elizabeth Chuck is a reporter for NBC News who focuses on health and mental health, particularly issues that affect women and children.

It was supposed to be a fun getaway for Destiny Morgan and her children: a chance to glide down waterslides, float along the lazy river and enjoy what Morgan thought would be a safe, family-friendly vacation.

Morgan said the nurse told her she could detect a pulse, barely, so Morgan and the nurse started yelling for an AED — an automated external defibrillator that delivers an electric shock to the heart to try to restore the heartbeat. But no one could see an AED nearby, Morgan said, adding that she also could not find any resort staff members or a lifeguard to help her. “There wasn’t anything that would indicate that they gave a damn about a human life,” she said.
