If a parent died at your hands

Yeah not her fault. She should try to seek some grief counseling. During such a situation people panic, you might know what to do but when it comes to actually doing it we freak out sometimes. We make mistakes. Her mother was dying, who is to say the CPR would have worked? No one. 

I'm heartbroken having to know that someone feels like this. That paramedic needed to be reported. As for myself I'm going to take a cpr class during my days off next week. I'm taking my daughter too. You never know when it might come in handy and save a person in the 10% range.
