He was upstairs getting ready to take a shower when he sensed something was wrong, prompting him to signal for help by pounding on the floor. His wife, Rachel, immediately called 911 when she found him struggling to breathe, and Keith lost consciousness soon after.Moments later, Rachel received a text from Randy Ruston, a dispatcher with the San Antonio Fire Department (SAFD), who used new emergency response technology to assess the situation. Through a live video link sent to her phone, Randy was able to see Keith’s condition in real time, observing vital signs such as heart rate and skin tone. This technology allowed the dispatcher to virtually be on site as he guided Rachel through administering CPR until paramedics arrived.Keith survived the critical event and has since fully recovered, calling it a miracle. Last week, Randy was able to meet with the Youngs in person. In an emotional reunion, the couple expressed their deep gratitude for Randy’s calm guidance and the lifesaving technology during the emergency.Source: SUNNY SKYZ</div></body>
