Two weeks ago 18-year-old Sara Jewell performed CPR on a little one year old girl at Disneyland...and saved her life.
"We look over and this lady is like holding this child in her arms and screaming that we need help that she needs first aid," reports Sara, who was there on a Taft High School Choir organized trip.
"Her lips were blue, her eyes were rolled back in her head, she was convulsing," Jewell said of the little girl, "and I'm like 'I am a life guard I know CPR can I help you.' She kind of looked at me like 'ok' ...so I was like 'I need you to put the child on the ground,' so she laid her on the ground and I just started giving her CPR."
After being given CPR for a short time the little girl regained consciousness and eventually left with her mother. When asked how she felt about being called a hero, Jewell replied:
Strange and possibly sage words.
A Disneyland employee gave her free passes after it was all over.
