Children Often Victims
Of Choking Accidents
A four-year-old child was
playing with his toys one day
when his mother turned from
her ironing to see him place a
marble in his mouth. Before
she could get to him he had
swallowed the object, became
cyanotic and stopped breathing.
The mother rushed the child
to a nearby fire station where
a fireman, trained by Red Cross
in first aid, gave mouth-to
mouth respiration until an am
bulance came to take the child
to a hospital where the marble
was removed.
