    He’s clearly an informed, intelligent person who knew precisely what to do in the moment.
  • Now I know him lifting her legs seems funny, but He's doing it to force blood towards her brain so she regains conscious.

    What’s delightful is to watch a YouTube video without cussing, yelling and potty mouth garbage we hear on a regular basis.

    Elevated her feet above her heart (easier for her heart) and turned her on her side (easier to breathe). Good job.
