And so i said, lets get his airway going. Lets make sure he has a clear airway. When he started seizing, we put him on his side. You look inside to make sure theres no obstructions.

It was the director of guide dog training operations. The company says tommy is resting expected. I have to tell you, i was right in front of him when he was being treated by ems. A tip of the cap to the emergency responders. They were literally doing chest compressions on him. They had their defibrillators out and were utilizing them as well. A Police Helicopter ended up taking him to the hospital. It was not a good situation. Fortunately, they had all the right systems in place. Switching gears here. Temperatures in the 90s.

About time you did some work around here. Nicely done. New information after Dc Police Officers shot and killed a woman in southwest last night. That womans name is isabel devol. The 41yearold from winchester, virginia but its not clear why she was in dc. Police say they answered a call about an accident and then there was a second report of a woman with a gun near the bald eagle rec center. When officers arrived, they say dew vault ignored orders to drop what turned out to be a semiautomatic handgun. The woman raised her arms with the gun and thats when officers opened fire. The chief also says officers body cameras were activated at the time. This is the second time this year dc a go fund me account has been set up for the family of a fouryearold boy. Look at this little guy. He is so cute. He was shot and killed at a daycare and he did it himself. Called james somehow got a hold of a weapon monday in orange county. Thats west of i95. That house is home to a sheriffs deputy. We are told the deputy wasnt home at the time and that the gun was not his service weapon. But this shooting is parking lot of questions like, whos gun was it, how did the little boy get his hands on it . We are waiting on some answers. You spoke to a gun safety expert, michael. He said that this should never have happened. A fouryearold should have never been able to get his hands on a working gun. He said an adult in the home clearly dropped the ball. Reporter there is a lot of power behind a gun. It can be the difference between life and death. Thats why playing with one is no joke. Theres no one that i know of that does not feel bad and sorrow. Mark warner says the key to preventing gun tragedy is educating yourself and taking preventative measures such as using the trigger or cable lock like this one. You can either run it through like this. I prefer to run it through the make well. You insert the other end of the cable into the lock and turned the key. With that on, even a child they cannot load the firearm. Warner says you can also use a lockbox to step up your gun safety. They this is used for transferring firearms. Others are made to trick or fold or full the naked eye. This looks like a standard nightstand. However, hidden is a compartment for a firearm. Homeowners can also use a gun vault to keep their families safe. So far this year more than 90 kids were involved in unintentional shootings across the country. Many of them hurt, some dead. But all of them having one thing in common, improperly stored guns. We get complacent. We think we know everything and be slack off and bad things happen. So what is the gun owners what if the gun owners cant find that cable lock . If you have lost it and you dont know where it is, many of the stores actually may have extras and just so heartbreaking. Lets hope this helps somebody else to make sure that if they do have a gun that it is safe.

We took in uber ride earlier today and asked the driver, has this ever happened to you . Im not sure. It depends how the response times are. Im sure it depends on where in the city you are going.

Next up, wood screws, only 4 for 20 of these. Finally, a gallon of white paint. 57 bucks. The grand total, 71. Even this being five times as much, it would still be under 400 bucks. Seeing this makes it all worth it. We are thrilled. To build this rent. We have seen ducks using it in the proof is in the pudding. The pond is on the west side of the capital.

But debbie writes, no wonder she was texting. This guy sounds like an immature jerk who needs to grow up and put his big boy pants on. Is suing her for 17. 31, but the filing fee with the court is maybe more than that. Maybe its the principle. Forget your big boy pants. The new trend is, basically, a onesie for men.

She visibly remembers when a small child in her care had an arctic seizure. She all of a sudden throws up and turns purple. Fortunately, the childs parents told kelsey how to handle it. Parents arent always doing the best things or the most convenient things to enable well chained babysitters stay safe. Very true. So what kinds of things should parents keep in mind . Let them know weather they can answer the door. Simple things. The instructor with the red cross says parents can better prepare the home before the sitter even arrives. Make suhere t bathroom doors are shut. Shut the doors to the laundry room because theres chemicals in there. Drowning, poisoning, fall, and choking among the likely accidents. I would like to know where the emergency stuff is. Tell your sitter where you keep the first aid kit. Make sure the sitter knows your families escape plan in case of a fire. As for kids who have asthma, its not enough for the child to know where the inhaler is. Sometimes they have trouble communicating. By law, they cant administer an epipen with allergies to a child. You can write permission fo an emergency situation. Just make sure both parties sign it. Finally, they readily give the sitter their cell number but batteries die and reception can be a problem. Sitters should have more than one number to call in case of an emergency. It made me realize how important it is to remain calm in a bad situation. So it sounds like common sense but you need to keep your cool when emergencies happen. Making sure you know the address of the family, where you are watching the children, and really all those important things. And we got a new toy to play with out here today.
