Gran’s hold saves boy

 NationNews - Barbados: "A GRANNY who saved her three-year-old grandson’s life using the Heimlich manoeuvre is advocating that it be taught to everyone.

Even though she learned the life-saving procedure several years ago, Stephanie Stuart, of Block 2G, The Ivy, St Michael, said everything she was taught came back to her in a flash when Machai swallowed a coin, started choking and slipped into a semi-conscious state.

It all happened last Wednesday about 9:45 p.m. Stuart said she was walking towards her friend’s bar in the Ivy when she heard her daughter who lived a short distance away screaming “help! help”.
