Question

Bethany Simpson, a pupil at St Columb Major Academy, bravely stepped in when her stepfather Robert Hoskins stopped breathing on March15. She delivered CPR(心肺复苏法) before the ambulance arrived.

Bethany's mother Jane and Robert were watching TV in bed when both of them had fallen asleep, but Jane woke up and noticed Robert's breathing had become weak and hard. Jane quickly called 999 and followed the operator's advice, including moving him onto his side to make him more comfortable.But when Robert stopped breathing completely and the operator told her to give CPR, Jane completely froze.

“ I panicked(恐慌) and said“I can' t do it',” said Jane.“ Fortunately, Bethany heard me scream, came into the bedroom and said ‘ it's OK, Mum. I know what to do. 'She was so confident and took charge.”Bethany performed CPR that kept Robert alive.

Robert, who is now recovering at home, said, “I would just like to sincerely thank St John Ambulance for teaching the children first aid. If it wasn't for them and Bethany, I wouldn't be here. ”The ten-year-old says she doesn't believe she is a hero. “I am just glad my dad is still here, ”she added.

Both Robert and Jane believe the government should ask all schools to teach first aid. “This incident just shows why it's important to teach everyone first aid -especially in schools, ”said Jane.“ Without my daughter and the training St John Ambulance gave her, Robert would be dead and I would be heartbroken. I am so proud of Bethany and so grateful.”
