Death can happen in a split second. Just as it did when 25-year-old Shonda Eister witnessed her 61-year-old father fall down the basement steps. <\/p>\n
Eister immediately called 911 and followed CPR instructions by administering chest compression for at least ten minutes until help arrived. <\/p>\n
Her father began breathing before he was helicoptered to the hospital. Eister had never learned CPR, but she\u2019s grateful she was there to help her father, who did suffer brain damage from a lack of oxygen. <\/p>\n
Her father has returned home and will soon be helping out on the farm again. <\/p>\n
“He’s as ornery as ever,” Eister laughed.<\/p>\n
Be a hero. Learn CPR!<\/p>\n
