Thumbs up News, Disco tune saves man's life.
Debra Bader was taking a walk in the woods with her 53-year-old husband one morning when suddenly he collapsed. At first she thought the situation was hopeless.

"I looked at him and said, 'He's dead,' because he wasn't moving or making any sounds at all," Bader remembers. "But I pulled the cell phone out of his pocket and called 911, and then a public service announcement I'd heard on the radio popped into my head."

Default Thats a really cool way to remember it !
I've had many CPR courses. We were told to count "one and two and three".

When you think about it, that really IS the beat of Stayin' Alive ! LOL !


Remember, on infants, don't press as hard and it's a shorter compression to breath ratio .

Alas, this would have been a perfect intro to any of Donna Summer's songs
