A four-year-old daughter was saved by a resident of the English city of Newton-le-Willows, who suffered from cerebral bleeding, reports the Charity Today edition.
In 2017, 46-year-old Sonya Jones woke up at four in the morning with an unbearable headache and called an ambulance, after which she fainted.
Her 4-year-old daughter Sophia heard the noise and was able to go downstairs and let the paramedics in to take her mother to the hospital. All the time, while waiting for doctors, she was next to her mother. “If she hadn’t opened the door to the doctors, things could have ended much worse,” Jones said.
The patient was told that she had subarachnoid bleeding, a life-threatening type of stroke in which bleeding occurs on the surface of the brain. The Englishwoman spent two weeks in the hospital, she had to learn to walk again.
After the bleeding, Jones’ memory has deteriorated and she is not as good at picking up information as she used to. “Every time you go to bed, you think that it will happen again, even now. Since it is not visible from the outside that something is wrong with me, many do not take my disease seriously,” she said.
Earlier it was reported that a four-year-old boy from the Spanish city of Valencia saved the life of a pregnant woman a mother who lost consciousness without having time to call an ambulance. Her son took the phone, opened the WhatsApp app, and began sending voice messages to relatives in which he said his mother was lying on the floor and not moving.
