Was 1st on scene to a 3 year old drowning tonight. Did CPR for 10 minutes until the paramedics arrived and child was air lifted and is in hospital now “hanging on”. Life is precious. Hug the ones you love.

Damn man, that’s intense. Hope the little one makes it through.
Makes you humble on life and your time with your beloved ones again 🥺
Hope that kid makes it 🧡
Sending prayers Jeff 🙏♥️
Nice work Jeff. CPR is good to learn
Well done Jeff. Scary.
Great job Jeff. You are the reason that child is “hanging on”. If not for you, the kid would have no chance at all. You made difference in the lives of so many even by just prolonging that child’s life. You did all that you could have done.
💔🙏🏽
Thank you for type
Oh my lord, tragic.
Sorry that you had to witness this, life is so fragile and such an awful tragedy 🫂😢💜
Your actions gave that child a chance, when they otherwise would have certainly died.
Everyone needs to learn cpr.
Jeff, get some TRIM support as soon as possible, or at least a chance to fully recount what happened to a trusted friend or colleague (a credible, balanced witness). The good, the bad and the ugly. Well worth it.
Sounds like you saved their life, first responders can only put the handbrake on decline - not revive. Sounds achieve the maximum the situation could offer. Kudos to you.
Thank God you saved him...hope kid will fully recover! Maybe become a bitcoiner ....
Whoa. Being a mother to two children this gives me the chills....
Please keep us posted.
Love and light
Had to perform the Heimlich Maneuver on a 5 year old in a movie theater a few years ago when everyone else was just standing around waiting for someone to do something. Not as scary as what you had to do. Sometimes you need to just jump in and handle it.
🙏
That’s beautiful, thank you
Sorry to hear this Jeff. That's tough. You and the child will be in my prayers.
Wow, thank you man! I hope it works out 🙏
Prayers to the young child. I am so sorry. Life is so very precious.
Absolutely tragic. Prayers for the family.
You are a true hero!
God bless
I’ve known people who were in nearly the same situation. My heart goes out to you, and to the family and little kiddo. May his brain have gotten enough oxygen, may he recover, may you as well. Few are put in the position to do something as urgent as what you did. Thanks for being there to do it.
God Bless your efforts and that little one.
Is the child ok Jeff? Can’t stop thinking about the family and you 🙏🥲
thinking of you and the child and his family Jeff.
Worst nightmare. So glad you were there to help
Omg, that’s horrific. I can’t even imagine. Wishing the best for the little one, the family and you.
Lots of love 🧡
Whoa. Hope the little one pulls thru Jeff. Wishing you the best mate.
Prayers.
🙏🏻
Wow, Jeff. Life throws stuff at you. One saved life, incredible.
Geez how intense!! Good work Jeff.
Gosh I'm sorry you had to be that person but I'm certain the family is forever grateful for you taking action. Praying for the recovery of the child, children are resilient and hopefully this child will make it through 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼💛💛💛💜💜💜
Pure love. 📿
Resuscitation at the scene is the greatest predictor of a positive outcome. As an MD I say Thank you for getting involved. The child had no chance without your intervention.
🙏
Any update on the child?
Breathing on own but worried about brain damage (unfortunately)
Not sure extent yet.
That child was lucky you were there. If anything you a least gave him a chance. You’re a good man Jeff ❤️
it is an uncomfortable position to be, but if you know how to do CPR you always need to step up. Well done Mr. Booth
God bless you for being there Jeff.
God Bless You Jeff. I had a similar event in Mexico, it’s a strange feeling to be first and to actually save a life. Indeed, Life is precious Bro. Thank You for not giving up on that child.
💜🙏🏼
