CPR

I took a CPR course tonight from 6:30 to 9:30. Emily and I took it together with three other people. It was scary to think about doing any of it on a dying person. I'd like to think I'd have the kind of focus and resolve to not get paralyzed in a situation like that. Especially the baby choking/cardiac arrest one. But I don't know. The only way you know is if it happens to you, right?

Tan plastic baby
grab its neck, lay on your knee
and pound on its back
