Learn CPR, folks.

Here's a darn good reason to know CPR:

Oh, and the man turned patient in the article? That's my stepdad. Those folks saved his life. I'll be brushing up on my CPR soon.

Wow! I'm so glad he is ok. I took CPR in high school and college, but should refresh my memory too!

Whoa....I'm glad he's OK!

I've taken CPR but I'm always afraid that I'd forget everything in a real life situation....

My dad saved my mom's life a year ago. She went into v-fib and had he not had the presence of mind to get her on the floor, call 911, and start cpr she wouldn't be here.

I also have a good friend who saved someone's life a few years ago. A neighbor had a heart attack in the hot tub and his wife couldn't get him out. My friend ran over, helped get him out, and did cpr until the ambulance arrived.

So, SO important.

So glad he's OK.  Thank you for the reminder my certification expired 1.5 years ago and I need to renew it.
