女婴病危!父亲心急如焚超速驾驶 暖心交警化身“天使”施救

Victoria O’Neal and her husband, Derrick Stroud, recently welcomed three kids, and they are happy about it.

Unluckily, not long after, danger struck. One afternoon, Victoria noticed that one of their babies, Amelia, was having trouble breathing. Worried, as any mother would be, she called Derrick and asked him to return home to take their little one to the hospital.

Derrick came home and took 9-week-old Amelia to the hospital. Fear set in knowing that his daughter’s condition was worsening, so he raced to get help at the hospital in Greenville. Unluckily, we all know what can happen when you speed. Derrick said he knew how fast he was going and that being pulled over was a likely result. But it was worth it to save his daughter who was battling RSV symptoms.

Traffic police officer Matthew Brown is the one who stopped Derrick. After looking at baby Amelia, he said he knew he had to move quick to save her life. “When I got there, the baby was unresponsive(没反应的) sitting in the child’s seat,” Matthew said. “I turned her head towards me and I could see that her lips started to go blue and she was having a lot of trouble breathing. Once I got her out of the seat, she started to breathe a little bit better. Her blueness started to go away and I started to rub her back to keep her awake where she could focus on getting her breathing back to normal.”

Once Matthew got Amelia to respond, a medical team was called and she was taken to a local hospital. She was later transferred(转移) to a children’s hospital in Greenville where she was treated for RSV. Amelia’s parents are so grateful for his knowledge and approach to the emergency.  “Literally, it’s like God sent him to be there,” Derrick said. Now, Amelia is as happy and healthy as her two sisters.
