Medical emergency on flight - discussion and experiences

Have had many unscheduled landings.. but this was my first medical. Flight 2411 out of DFW to LAX today. @ 35 minutes into the flight a pax suffered some type of major issue. Kudos to both the PAX and FA's for the way everything was handled.

After the ill pax has been taken off by the medics we were informed by the pilot that we had landed heavy due to all the excess fuel and our plane would need to be pulled for an inspection and new hardware would be assigned to us.

Few hours late.. but we made it just fine. I don't know if I was more impressed with the overall demeanor of the pax or what.. but no one was .....ing.. which was nice for a change.

I wonder if I can get a segment out of this?
