Follow up: Just got word from the dad of the 3 year old drowning that I did CPR on last week, and the child is smiling, moving and responsive. Still probably a long way to go but a great (and emotional) morning.

That's great to hear. 👍 Ik had to do something similar years ago in very cold water. The child lived which is great, but I didn't even got a thank you from his mom. 😏

Just right place, right time - but thank you. Been first on scene at numerous accidents over my life but this one (with a 3 year old) hit really hard. Made me really thankful and empathetic for what our first responders and emergency professionals go through.

@Jeff Booth - thanks for a happy story today. Thank goodness you were there. It's been a strange day for us here (my parents passed in a car accident 22 years ago today; anniversary always a bit tough) but this news cheered me up. Wishing all good things to the little girl and her family.

So glad to hear Jeff. Your service as a lifeguard put you in good stead. The heavens were shining on our little friend that day to make a random series of events putting you in the right place at the right time. Love your work man.
