#feelgoodfriday #eastidahonews #cpr
EastIdahoNews.com and Ashley Furniture HomeStore in Idaho Falls and Pocatello are partnering to honor people in our community for Feel Good Friday. Every week, we surprise someone deserving of special recognition.
Brad Pearson is a physical therapist who has been fighting long-haul Covid for several months. The illness and exhaustion have forced him to work from home.
Earlier this week, he heard someone yelling outside his Blackfoot home. He went to the front door and a man working in the field across from Pearson's house was asking for someone to help him. The man's colleague had collapsed and did not have a pulse.
Pearson called 911 and went across the street. For over 10 minutes, he did chest compressions on the man until the paramedics arrived. Pearson was exhausted and said he prayed constantly for the strength to keep the compressions going. The man was rushed to the hospital and survived - with doctors crediting Pearson for getting the man's heart beating again.
We decided to pay Pearson a visit and thank him for his quick actions. Watch the video above to see the surprise!

What a humble and reverent gentleman. A true hero, that God sent as an angel to help his fellow human. God bless him and the 2 other gentlemen!! Hope the patient gets well soon and they meet in a much less dire situation.

What an amazing humble man, in tears because he could help save a life. His reaction to the incident sailed it all, makes you realise there are still good people out there, just wish there were more like him. I pray he recovers from his long covid and can get back to his normal healthy self. Very deserving ❤️🙏🏻

Never done it myself, but I've heard this over and over from so many qualified people. Brad is an older gentleman who was recovering from a RESPIRATORY DISEASE THAT HAS KILLED MILLIONS! Ran... While calling and talking... Only to arrive and perform CPR for MINUTES... You can talk about the great powers of adrenaline and all but... Dang... You are a hero, sir. Nothing more, nothing less

A friend got at lot of help taking nac, vit d and zinc. I researched nac because i didnt know what it did. Turns out it can destroy biofilm which infections can hide under also it removes toxins from liver. He has had copd for years. Both him and and another friend with lifelong asthma said that nac made them cough up very thick stuff that blocked the airway on the way out. Stuff they had never been able to get out before.

@cdh79 Год назад

@@AuntBee59 I'm not religious either, and I see and appreciate the positive place your comment is coming from, but for us "non-believers" actions like these rather show us what good can come from humans and that people can do amazing things themselves. To save this life was done by this person (and the medics) and he can and should take all the credit (in my opinion) and not pass it on to a higher power. Especially when it's something so true coming from a humble person like in this video. I understand you believe in God, and this is great if your belief helps you in times when you need it. We have our own methods of staying strong in difficult times, we just don't need a god for this. In the end we have all hopefully found our ways and what works for us. All the best and happy holidays. :)

@AuntBee59 Год назад

@@cdh79 well I must say that was a very polite comment. Thank you. But there is God. There is heaven. He directs most of us to do good. I’m so sad you don’t have him in your life. One day, you will stand in front of him. And I bet if you are in a deadly accident, he will be the first you call on. I just know you will find him. Why not now, I have no idea. You see, I was given up as a child. At 10 years old, God became my only friend. He still is. He is a comfort to me. I can count on him. I feel he is the reason I am like I am today. A big heart. It’s because of him. He guides me when I don’t know what to do. I couldn’t live this life without him. I pray one day you feel the same.🙏❤️ And I would like to say Merry Christmas to you. And God bless and keep you.❤️🙏🎄
