My son was at Work and because he is a' First Responder' he recently got the call that a man was lying in the road fairly close bye. A motorist had seen the man staggering around so he stopped and went over to ask 'Are you Ok?' and the man said no I feel terrible then dropped down dead. Then two young local teenage boys on their bicycles came along & 1 lad started doing CPR (chest compressions) on the man while the other lad raced off to get where he knew there was a Defibrillator. My son arrived & asked the young lad to continue until he gets 'his equipment out'inc a Defibrillator and he'll take over. He tried and tried until the Ambulance arrived and they tried but sadly the poor mans heart didnt restart and he died.
Those brilliant sensible young lads were army or sea cadets and hopefully they will get an award for their heroic attempt to save that man. I hope they do get an award.
Thanks to being in the Cadets they knew what to do, whilst most people would have just stood.
