“I just saw Flee sitting, just going through something that didn’t seem good like he was choking,”

“He couldn’t breathe, and his eyes was going back in his head, and he was catching a bit of a seizure. I actually didn’t know what was going on. Kind of scared me.”

“I didn’t know what was going on at the moment,” Jerry said. “I guess everything happened so fast. But I had an out-of-body experience. I felt like I was telling myself to come back to myself. Then I just, I guess when I snapped out of it, Jim was giving me chest compressions.

“When I was younger,” he said, “I had to take these classes for CPR and all that type of things for my little sister who has a heart condition. They needed the whole family to take these special classes before she came home when she was a baby.

“I think all those classes stuck with me all the way to this day because I remember everything vividly they told me to do in certain situations. I got over there, I just was as frantic and confused as everybody else at first. And then something just jumped in me like, get to it. It gave him life again.”
