A Second Chance: How CPR Training Saved a Stranger’s Life
Monique had just finished her grocery shopping when she noticed a man collapse near the store entrance. People gathered, but no one moved. She had taken a CPR training class just a month before. Her heart raced, but her hands didn’t hesitate.
She checked for a pulse. Nothing. The man wasn’t breathing.
Monique immediately started CPR—just like she had practiced. Hard and fast compressions. No time to second guess. A store employee called 911. Minutes felt like hours.
When the paramedics arrived, they took over and shocked his heart. His pulse returned. Later, they told her that without immediate CPR, he wouldn’t have made it.
She didn’t know his name. She didn’t need to. What mattered was that she gave someone a second chance—because she chose to be ready.
You never know whose life you might save. It could be a friend, a parent, a stranger—or someone who needs you to be brave in the moment.
