She died under the terrified eyes of her students, struck down by a sudden illness against which unfortunately, despite the timely help, there was nothing to be done. She died like this, as reported by the Arena, in that school that she loved so much and where everyone appreciated her for her always calm and kind way of her, Giovanna Fabbrica44 years old, teacher at the primary Carlo Ederle of Villa Bartolomea.
Illness in the second B
The teacher, who was originally from Naro, in the Agrigento area, and lived in Cerea with her husband Angelo, who was also a teacher in an institute in the area, had arrived at the Comprehensive Ederle last year for the so-called strengthening as well as for teaching of curricular subjects such as science and geography. The illness occurred yesterday afternoon, shortly after 14, while she was in the classroom of the second B, where she had just finished one of the lessons of the afternoon return.
The greeting to the colleague and then the fall to the ground
Suddenly, after greeting the Italian teacher Tommaso De Stefani who was supposed to hold the next two hours, she collapsed to the ground, falling on her back, a short distance from the desk and the front row benches. Immediate intervention of the other teacher who, with courage and cold blood, without panic and strengthened by what he learned in the life-saving course that the IC Ederle had activated last year for all his staff, began to practice heart massage. Not without in the meantime calling the attention of the janitors and other teachers to bring the defibrillator supplied by the school to the classroom as soon as possible and accompany the children out.
The maneuvers to save her
While De Stefani continued all the maneuvers for over a quarter of an hour in an attempt to snatch her colleague from death, an ambulance from 118 arrived at the Ederle first and immediately after the Verona Emergency helicopter rescue, landed in the football field in little distance from the institute. Unfortunately, however, after another half hour of resuscitation maneuvers carried out by the medical and paramedical staff, the teacher died.
