Lifesaving support appreciated

I just want to thank the 911 operator, the emergency personnel and the ambulance crew who responded to our home on the afternoon of New Year's Eve day when my husband went into cardiac arrest. Due to the efforts of our boys, who initially performed CPR, and the timely response received, I am pleased to report that Michael is doing very well and is making a full recovery.

I also want to thank everyone at Southeast Hospital for the excellent care he received there as well.

This truly was a team effort and would not have happened without everyone's help. I am sorry that we do not know the names of those who initially responded, but know that we are extremely grateful that you responded quickly and professionally. You made a happy new year possible for our family.

TIFFANY, ADAM AND DEREK PARKER,
