I hope no one minds, but I'd like to brag about my son.
I'm so VERY proud of him !!!
He's receiving an award from the police for saving a life last summer.
Here's the story as he posted on Facebook if you care to read.


July 25th, 2015
Apparently searching for a new truck might have saved a life. Today when pulling into a dealership there was a group of people standing around a person on the ground. He was ashen, cyanotic and when I checked was VSA (vital signs absent). I began CPR and with a bystander continued till paramedics arrived. We watched them give him x6 shocks, epinephrine and after 5 minutes load and transfer him into an ambulance. He was unresponsive when the ambulance left, without using their sirens.
However just got a call from the dealership that a family member called and despite my fears he is alive. Unconscious but alive.
Lesson to everyone... Take a freaking CPR course. I was amazed that no one was doing anything when we arrived. I'm amazed that in this day and age there are businesses that don't have portable defibrillators.
People, talk to your employers, they cost about $1000 and can make a real difference. Every minute you delay using a defibrillator you reduce their effectiveness by 10%.

Wow.
I received a letter from Durham Police inviting me to attend a recognition ceremony at Durham Regional Council, regarding the man I gave first aid / CPR to in the summer.
I didn't expect an award, and I am more than happy just knowing the guy lived though it. What's wild is that I don't even know his name.
I'm honoured and touched.
To all my Facebook friends, if you don't have first aid/CPR training, take it. Half a day or a day out of your life won't kill you, but you might be able to make a difference for a friend or loved one.


Way to go Marc.

Excellent action and recognition for your son's efforts. You're right to be proud of him.

Is he a paramedic?

​No, just a guy in the right place @ the right time.

You are far to modest hicks, what your son did is very HEROIC.

At least they admit their guilt.
