Everything was going well for Janie Hall and her date as they had lunch at the Cheesecake Factory in Kansas City, Missouri. Janie met him online and they were having their first date. She says they had a great meal and great conversations, but then things took a scary turn. Right in the middle of the date, the man stood up, coughed three times, and then fell to the floor.
Thankfully, Janie had worked as a respiratory therapist in the emergency room and intensive care unit for 10 years, so she knew exactly what to do. Becca Bartholomew, a server at the restaurant, ran over to help Janie roll the man over, and after finding no pulse, the two women took turns doing CPR until paramedics arrived. By then he had a faint pulse.
Janie has visited her date in the hospital, where he’s recovering. She says they talked for hours and adds, “I’m so glad he’s alive.” He even asked her out on a second date and she said yes. Let’s just hope this one isn’t quite so memorable.
