Once, we lost a choking patient when I was working on Basic Life Support.
She'd been choking more than 5 minutes when we arrived, and we couldn't get the Heimlich to work.
The Medical Director told us to wait until she goes unconscious-hoping her relaxing muscles would aid in a successful Heimlich-but it didn't work.
She needed Advanced Life Support (ALS), but she'd been choking too long when they arrived for them to bring her back.
That was a difficult call--and it's why I work in ALS now.

the amublace is driven sooooo slow when a kid is in danger!

Omg, ambulance will be there in 10 minutes? That's such a long time in a life or death situation.

@msdarkstar1012 yeah :P

When I was that age, I choked on a little cough drop or whatever it was, and my dad saved me within seconds by grabbing me by the feet and shaking me upside down. Why don´t they try this? Probably the first thing I would do by instinct. The strange thing is, my father was saved the same way when he was a child by a neighbour who saw him choking on something. It´s the scariest thing to see someone choking, I hope I never have to.

@vickiormindyb wow, that just sucks how one mistake like that could end your life

@msdarkstar1012 A pickle. She took it from one of those make your own salad bars at the grocery and a guard walked by just as she was doing it. Afraid he was going to see her she stuffed the whole thing in her mouth and it sucked into her throat when she noticed and became startled.

I think it would be fun to be an actor for this show

@vickiormindyb just wondering what did they choke on?
Wow, a child choking on a large piece of ham. Good thing the new 911 system came in time. Also, I think this segment is the only one that took place in North Dakota.

Icy River from #108 took place the river that divides Moorehead, MN and Fargo, ND.
