Just saw someone giving chest compressions

I was out to have dinner. When I was looking for what to eat near the billing counter, I heard people shouting.

When I went there I saw that a man was lying down unconscious and his wife was shouting to call an ambulance. There was another lady who was giving chest compressions to this man. All this while I kept looking at the unconscious man and mind was racing and I kept thinking what can I do to help. But I couldn’t. It felt like me or anyone being there would just add to the panic. So I was just standing there numb

Luckily the unconscious man opened his eyes and seemed ok soon enough. They probably took him to a hospital.

I’m really grateful to this lady who took immediate action during the chaotic few minutes.

This incident will stay with me for a while, partly because I feel bad to have gone numb during such a situation and partly because it makes me realise how we don’t care enough about our health.

I hope that person recovers quickly

Once i had gone numb when my friend was drowning in a waterfall in Shillong. Me and a girl both froze. While a stranger came running and saved him. The stranger opened his t shirt and threw towards the guy who caught it and then he was pulled out. It was a shallow pool with a tunnel on the bed...!!!

How do you handle your friends' parents passing away?

I mean, it's not something that's talked about often. But it's so awkward. What do you say? "I'm sorry, let me know if you need anything"? But you live 400 km away, how will they even ask you for anything? You can't even comprehend what...
