Brave Nine-Year-Old Saves Cousin From Choking

Little Hero

Timothy Prather was enjoying a day out with his sister, his grandparents, and his three-year-old cousin Conner Harmon. Everything was fine until Timothy noticed that Conner was grabbing his neck, crying, and stomping his feet. Right then, he knew what he had to do and wasted no time.

His grandma, who was next to Conner, was in shock and froze, but luckily Timothy took action. He grabbed Conner from behind and performed the Heimlich maneuver on him. Conner spat out the candy that had caused the choking, and all was well. His little cousin could have lost his life but thanks to his quick thinking and his bravery, he is safe and sound.
