It's Living Matters Awareness Week!

CPR saves lives. It doesn't matter what the stats show, this life, this time, matters. This is Herald News -

When Jesse, 14, took a babysitting course 21/2 years ago and learned CPR, he never pictured what it would be like to do it for real. On his mother. 

He remembers watching her slide out of the chair and onto the floor, a moment he talks about quietly, looking down. He called 911 and, at the dispatcher’s instruction, began chest compressions. 

Five minutes later, paramedics took over, using a defibrillator three times to restart the Cole Harbour woman’s heart.

The sea-shore may be littered with stranded starfish; how can you save them all? To this one, this time it matters that you toss it back into the sea. You don't calculate the odds; you act. You just act!

Lawmakers have sent to Gov. Phil Bryant a bill to require high school students to take a CPR course as part of their physical education requirements. In addition to the cardiopulmonary resuscitation training, HB432 provides that students in grades 9-12 across the state also would be taught how to use automated external defibrillators. The instructional courses, which would carry one-half credit toward graduation, would be developed by the American Red Cross or the American Heart Association. "When you reach these students when they are in high school they will carry it with them all the rest of their lives.
