I was sitting here wondering what I would write about today when I saw this story come up on Yahoo! Anyone who knows me can attest I'm not a crier, but it moved me to tears. Wow. I don't know who I should commend first - the little girl for her quick thinking and her pure love for her sister, or the bus driver for her knowledge of CPR and fast acting to save a life. My husband and I take turns watching our kids walk to the bus stop every morning - I always knew it was the right thing to do, but this story really hit home as to why we do it faithfully. All it took was a split second - one grab, one hit, one decision to perform CPR. Life can change dramatically in an instant. This girl will grow up without a kidney or a leg, but she'll grow up. She and her sister will both live to see another day. Their mother will get to enjoy every moment with them as long as she has them. All thanks to the grace of God and a selfless snap decision.
