On August 25, the Kentuckiana Region invited businesses from throughout the community to attend the Ready 365 Reception to kick-off the new corporate giving campaign led by Courier-Journal President & Publisher Wes Jackson. While the event was meant to inform, it also inspired. Kentuckiana Region Executive Jennifer Adrio presented Katie Strange with a Certificate of Extraordinary Achievement for her brave actions this past July when she helped save a life.
Strange was at her home in Elizabethtown, Ky. when her neighbor ran over with his infant daughter. The girl was choking on a small toy and was no longer breathing. Using skills she learned in a Red Cross Babysitter training course, Strange dislodged the toy from the infant’s throat saving the child’s life.

what started out as a soldering iron burn, flared up a couple of weeks ago, and had now become this horrible lump! :-( the docs have been putting silver nitrate on it to kill the over healing skin, but to no good, so now I have to be a hospital out-patient so they can remove it. Horrid!

I found this image in an old first aid book, it was under a chapter on shock, it was meant to demonstrate how shock can lead to death, but it looks more like a group of rabid dominoes lined up and killed a man in a graveyard.

Nothing a helicopter bandaid won't fix. Aden administered first aid to an ailing Kale after he stepped on a block which somehow cut open his foot.
Aden did a great job, taking it step by step like he just learned in his babysitter course (he was top of the class and is now CERTIFIED I might add ;)
He carried Kale to the washroom, set him on the counter and applied gentle pressure until the bleeding stopped. Gave it a gentle cleaning and then patched him up.
He's a kid with a cool head and he did his mama proud!
