The loss of a family member, friend, or loved one is one of the toughest things we ever have to face. Not only is the loss heartbreaking at the time...some people never recover from it. What if you could help save a small child from a near drowning, or had the skills and knowledge to stop blood from a bad cut...or how to give life sustaining breaths of air to a choking victim? What if you had those skills...and didn't use them? What if it was YOU that needed CPR in a crowded room and no one...
