Infant Revived with CPR
A man was hailed as a hero today, after he saved the life of an infant girl.
The baby’s mom found the infant lifeless in a corner of her crib. The child had no heartbeat and blood running from her nose and mouth. Mom didn’t know CPR, but thankfully, a neighbor heard her screaming and came running.
The neighbor had recently learned CPR in preparation for his sister’s twins, so he jumped into action.
Though he never thought he would have to use his CPR skills, he sure is happy he had them, and so is the family.
Be a hero. Learn CPR!
