I just want to take a moment to share this beautiful, amazing, heart wrenching story. Brian came home the other day and was shaking literally. I asked him what was up and he told me the craziest story. Not often does this happen to people I know. He had a customer that walked up to one of his team members grabbing her throat, unable to speak. The TM assumed that she was choking and wasn't sure what to do, so walked her over to another TM, who I will call MD his initials. MD dropped everything and went right into action, grabbing this very tall lady, luckily he is over 6ft so that worked well because I think she is well over 5'9. He immediately began the Heimlich on her. Word is he pumped her 35 times at least. By this time, Brian has made his way over there. They ended up laying this lady on her side, stretched out to clear her airway when she began to finally gasp for air.
While MD was pumping her, she was completely blue, stiff and then he said that he felt her 'slip away' physically and emotionally. My eyes are just filled with tears as I type this. He told Brian that after they wheeled her out in the ambulance. She fell over @ that moment he said that she was 'leaving this world' and hit her head.
She lived. She is okay. Brian spoke with her today. MD saved this ladies life. Years back he was in the Navy and lost someone that was chocking, he couldn't save them, he tried. This lady is of strong catholic faith, and told Brian that she believed she left this world shortly, and now she has her guardian angel, her life saver.
I am touched by this story, deeply. They are meeting, the four of them (her DH) this week. Thank you Jesus.
I am alive!
