This app was born from a real emergency.
It was 2am. My husband and I had stayed up late enjoying movies at home. He said he felt light-headed — and then he collapsed. He has a history of heart attacks. I was panicking and alone. I had no idea how to call emergency services — and if they answered, I couldn't tell them how to help us.
He'd had a heart attack before. But I couldn't tell them his medical history.
That moment changed everything. We built VIVA so no one else ever has to face it.
