You don’t need experience for life to come at you, and come fast. Richard Mayer found that out. On his first day on the job, he ended up jumping into action to save the life of a toddler who was choking on an apple.

The mother of the toddler rushed to him to inform him that her daughter was choking. There was little hesitation on Mayer’s part. Apparently, and I feel bad for saying this, but the mother tried to get the apple out of her daughter’s throat but ended up pushing it in further. Just wild.

Ah, but the toddler survived (you knew that; otherwise I wouldn’t be talking about it, here). Look, I love apples myself. I think apple slices for a toddler is a risk in itself. But hey, at least she’s not allergic to them like I am. The story didn’t say a “slice”, however. Just a “piece”. How big? Did the daughter chew properly? I’m just trying to see how we can avoid this again.

Apples are the best fruit of all time. Just wanna leave that there. Goodnight.
