Woman Saves Life With CPR
After eight days in a coma, a Kansas man is happy to be alive and thankful to the woman who saved his life with CPR.
70 year old Dave Williams was at the elementary school picking up his son, when he suffered a heart attack. The principal of the school rushed to his aid and performed CPR until help arrived.
Eight days later, Williams is grateful.
“The first thing I want to do when I can is say thank you to the principal at Turner because she saved my life. She really did.”
The principal says she learned CPR when she was a lifeguard, many years ago.
Be a hero. Learn CPR!
