9-Year-Old Saves Classmate With Heimlich Maneuver
may have saved the life of a classmate by performing the Heimlich maneuver on her as she choked on food, authorities said.
Essie Collier, a fourth grader at Racine’s Fratt Elementary School, noticed one of her classmates was in distress during lunch Tuesday. Students were eating in a classroom because the lunchroom had been cleared out so residents could vote.Teacher Samantha Bradshaw said Essie wrapped her arms around the student and began performing the Heimlich. Her classmate’s airway was cleared, and within seconds the girl was breathing fine.“I have never seen a student react in that way before,” Bradshaw said.
The Racine Unified School Board plans to honor Essie at a board meeting in late November for her heroics.
