Losing heart over mandatory AEDs?


NOW that was embarrassing! There I was with a bunch of strangers when we were asked this question: “Where is the heart located? Put your hand up if you think it’s on the left.”

Up went my hand. After all, all my romcoms show the love-struck hero/heroine clutching their left chest because their heart is beating extra fast during a romantic encounter. What’s more, people – from MAS air stewardesses to leaders – wanting to show heartfelt sincerity or patriotism would place their hand on the left, not right or centre.
