Lindsey was just two weeks post-partum from the birth to her first child, a son. Her mom, Mary, was thrilled to have a new grand baby and planned on taking half days at work that week to help Lindsey with the new baby. The first day, Mary arrived with a Pack ‘n Play and carried it up the stairs to the house. Although she was a fit 57-year-old, she was out of breath when she reached the top of the stairs and collapsed.
Lindsey called 911 and the dispatcher coached her through chest compressions, also known as Hands-Only CPR, until first responders arrived six minutes later.
They shared their story at the 2019 Twin Cities Go Red for Women Luncheon.
