How far are you from your nearest A&E and could you get your husband there quickly if you had to?

And what would you do with the children?

One of my neighbours had to get her husband to hospital recently in the absence of an ambulance and it took a borrowed wheelchair and several neighbours.

Am I being unreasonable to think most of us don't have a plan for this?

Could most of us get our partners to hospital fast enough in the event of a stroke or heart attack?

What's your plan?

My husband is 6ft 4 and weighs 18st. If he collapsed it would be very unlikely that I could get him to hospital myself even with help. I don’t know what I would do. It would be a case of taking turns doing CPR with anyone I could get to help until an ambulance arrived.

10 minute drive. I could do it and neighbours would help.

@ShowOfHands I work for the NHS and waiting time for a suspected heart attack ambulance in my area is 2.5 hours.

It's five minutes for us . Would grab a wheelchair from outside the hospital
