Blog #24 Two lives saved by a stroke of luck

Good morning cadets and welcome back from your spring vacation.
I hope that all of you had a great time.  Your argument/persuasive essays
are in and I am reading and grading them. Since we are working on health
and saving lives with the Heimlich and CPR I thought you would enjoy
this story that gives a new twist to fate or karma.  Please read and then
find another story that is related to CPR and post the URL link to our
site. Make sure to give a brief synopsis of your article or movie and to
also comment on other student's work.  Enjoy and try to find some
video links as well if possible.

    See, like this guy, if the old man wasn't there and no one out there konws CPR. He could have been on his way to heaven.So CPR is not just thing in our lesson, is useful stuff that we may use it some day on the street.

    This video show the many advances in technology that aid the CPR process i liked the mannequin because it sweats, bleeds and breaths giving a more so realistic look on the practice dummy. P.S. the Bee Gees song really does aid in CPR compressions i just thought it was a clever joke By 1SG.

    1. Wow, the mannequin is amazing. It imitates exactly what a human would do during a heart attack or stroke.

    This video tells us that anyone can suffer a stroke or a heart attack at any time and anywhere. Bystanders can easily help a person by giving him/her CPR. This video basically tells us that we all need to learn CPR. Many lives can be saved if we take the time to educate ourselves about CPR.

    Is a story of two mothers saving the life of a 51-year old man. I thought it was a great story because a life was saved and the man was very thankful in announcing that whose two women saved his life. Takes a lot of dignity and pride to do something like that. Also because this article involved teamwork, where the cooperative effort of the two females saved the man’s life. Teamwork makes achieving a goal easier.

  9. In this video you can see that a man at the beach is in need of CPR, because he is unconcious what I found interesting is that it took like 6 men to turn him around because they were using precaution in case of another injury he may have.

    1. It is very scary to know that if CPR isn't preformed that you can become paralyzed and this man was lucky that people nearby new hoe to preform CPR.

    This is a story about a woman who collapsed as a co-worker came to her rescue. As the EMT said she would have a very slim chance of survival if the co worker hadn't preformed CPR. In the end of the video the news caster says that all you have to do is compression's but I think that without putting air into the lungs it doesn't help as much although that is the new CPR procedure.

    1. Thanks for the correction, I appreciate the input. As for the grammar Nazi, you should realize that I should always be capitalized when referring to oneself. Since we are being honest. :-) Thanks again and glad you were paying attention.

    This video shows a girl who saved her friend from choking on a jawbreaker. She remembered the Hiemlich maneuver from a nickelodeon show called "Hey Arnold" and she mimmicked the actions of the cartoon and saved her friends life. Her friend is alive today because of her, the girls were 8 years old.
