看电视剧时学会了急救法 七岁男孩挽救卡喉窒息朋友

Kids are like little sponges(海绵) who silently soak up(吸收) whatever information surrounds them. Thankfully, for a little boy named DeAndre, David Diaz Jr. happened to soak up some very valuable information while watching television with his family.

DeAndre and David are both second graders at an elementary school in Binghamton, New York. It was on Thursday. The 7-year-olds were eating lunch when DeAndre suddenly started to choke(噎住) on a piece of pizza. David was scared, but thanks to The Good Doctor, he knew what to do!

“I was afraid my friend would die,” David explained. He’d seen the Heimlich maneuver(海姆利克氏急救法) performed in the medical drama The Good Doctor. He later told a teacher that as he watched the scene, it seemed “important”, so he tried to “remember” it. Yet, when the time came to act, David doesn’t remember having to think about what to do: He just did it. Racing to his friend’s side, he performed the Heimlich maneuver. Seconds later, the object dislodged itself from the child’s throat, and he was able to breathe again. DeAndre was checked out by the nurse and his parents were called.

School staff couldn’t wait to celebrate their newest little hero! New York State Senator Fred Akshar was so proud of David’s heroic act that he came to the school and presented him with the New York State Senate Commendation Award. “When second-grader David Diaz realized his friend DeAndre was choking during lunch time, David acted without hesitation, jumped in, and performed the Heimlich maneuver to save DeAndre’s life,” Akshar stated. “We were proud to present David with a New York State Senate Commendation Award for what he did.” David’s family is also proud of their son, even though they had no idea he knew how to use the Heimlich!
