Lake Stevens firefighter Pat Cook organized an informational session on sudden cardiac arrest for parents, students, teachers and others for tonight at 7 at the Lake Stevens High School Performing Arts Center, 2908 113th Ave. NE.

After the sudden collapse death of 12-year-old Lake Stevens resident Merridy Stilwell at a cross country meet, worried parents approached cook about sudden cardiac arrest.

Tonight’s session will allow everyone to ask medical experts about sudden cardiac arrest, which kills an average of 7,000 children a year, according to the National Center for Early Defibrillation.
