Have you ever given CPR?
LEARN CPR, YOU MIGHT SAVE SOMEONE'S LIFE!
This past week, a 17 year old collapsed at a church youth event. I as setting up snacks when it happened. Someone yelled out for me to come. He was non- responsive and was not breathing. I called out for 911 to be called. I then began CPR. I must have done it for about 10 minutes before Medics arrived. They had to shock him 3 times to get a weak pulse. He was brought to a local hospital and then transferred to a pediatric hospital. He had been unconscious for 6 days. He woke up today and drank his first cup of water.
I used a skill i never thought I'd have to use. I thank God i got trained otherwise the young man would have likely died.
