A Sister Saves the Day!
Sisters, Mariana, 11, and Gabriela, 9, learned the Heimlich Maneuver® from a Heimlich Heroes training event with their American Heritage Girls’ troop.
A Friend to the Rescue
Fourth grade classmates Mariyah and Ryan received Heimlich Heroes training at Taylors Creek Elementary School. One day, Ryan choked on a chunk of bread at lunch. Ryan indicated he was choking by pointing to his neck. Mariyah asked him if he was choking, walked around the table and performed the Heimlich Maneuver.
Emergency at Lunch!

With a generous donation, George Pierce also shared his story:
While our family was eating dinner, my 12-year-old son got up and went into the kitchen. He got a glass of water which I thought was very unusual. I never see him drink water without being told. Well, he took a drink, immediately grabbed his throat, and ran to me.
