A true hero. My uncle was a captain and paramedic for the fire dept in our home town in California. Sadly during the summer , drowning is the leading cause of death for toddlers there because it's a hot area and every house has a pool. One summer he literally gave CPR to 3 different kids who were technically dead on arrival. And he brought all 3 back to life. He did this in just a 2 week period.
