Most cardiac arrests happen at home, where, sadly, CPR is not common knowledge.<\/p>\n<p>If you haven\u2019t yet discussed CPR with your children, or parents, now is a great time to start. Teach the Hands-Only version first. Demonstrate on a stuffed animal, or baby doll. Practice the skill a couple of times a week until your family feels comfortable with it.<\/p>\n<p>As for Tudor, he\u2019s in critical condition, but the CPR gave him a chance at living. <\/p>\n<p><span class='st_facebook_hcount' st_title='Lightening Strikes Firefighter' st_url='https:\/\/www.simplecpr.com\/online-cpr-blog\/lightening-strikes-firefighter\/' displayText='facebook'><\/span><span class='st_twitter_hcount' st_title='Lightening Strikes Firefighter' st_url='https:\/\/www.simplecpr.com\/online-cpr-blog\/lightening-strikes-firefighter\/' displayText='twitter'><\/span><span class='st_linkedin_hcount' st_title='Lightening Strikes Firefighter' st_url='https:\/\/www.simplecpr.com\/online-cpr-blog\/lightening-strikes-firefighter\/' displayText='linkedin'><\/span><span class='st_plusone_hcount' st_title='Lightening Strikes Firefighter' st_url='https:\/\/www.simplecpr.com\/online-cpr-blog\/lightening-strikes-firefighter\/' displayText='plusone'><\/span><span class='st_pinterest_hcount' st_title='Lightening Strikes Firefighter' st_url='https:\/\/www.simplecpr.com\/online-cpr-blog\/lightening-strikes-firefighter\/' displayText='pinterest'><\/span><span class='st_email_hcount' st_title='Lightening Strikes Firefighter' st_url='https:\/\/www.simplecpr.com\/online-cpr-blog\/lightening-strikes-firefighter\/' displayText='email'><\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Firefighter Stu Tudor was struck by lightening walking across a parking lot yesterday.
