I would like to take the time to introduce everyone to miss Parham. she is a 2 month old beautiful baby girl. Last night I was dispatched to a residence to a child choking, it was this beautiful little princess.

She was turning blue and fading fast.. mom and dad tried cpr with no luck and when I arrived she was not breathing. I did reverse cpr and was able to suck the cereal out of her throat and she began breathing again.

She smiled at me for a second and then started crying which was music to my ears.

Out of my 25 years being a cop this is my greatest and most profound accomplishment and it made every second of those 25 years worth it all.

I am forever humbled and changed by this. Little miss Parham will forever be a part of my life.

Thousands of people commented with kind words, but perhaps the most touching remark comes from the young child’s mother.
