Charles' Story

Charles’ family was sitting around their kitchen table, eating noodles and pizza for dinner. They were laughing and talking about their day. Suddenly, Charles’ baby brother begin to gag. The baby tried coughing it up but within seconds he stopped breathing and his entire face turned blue.

Instead of panicking, the entire family stayed calm. Charles had ensured that his entire family take a Blink class together just four months earlier and they thus knew exactly how to act.

Charles’ mother quickly picked up her son and started giving him back blows. Thankfully, the food came out seconds later and the little baby was breathing again.

Charles reached out to Blink that night to share the story, and on behalf of his family stated, “We appreciate all that you do for the community and cannot even begin to describe how thankful we are for your organization. Thank you.”
