My niece Caroline, was involved in a rescue attempt

[Joe Hard 0]

I'm kinda proud of the girl, my sister sent me a letter saying that Caroline was one of the first people at the scene and took control, acted like a hero. I sent Caroline an email asking her what happened as her sister sent me a message, the day after it happened. I have been in suspense until yesterday. Caroline responded with an e mail saying what do you mean, what happened to me, nothing happened, I'm fine. She has applied a few times to join the volunteer fire department, but was denied, maybe she might get in there after this. I just found this story,

You hear about the bad stuff so much, you tend to forget that there are a lot of good folks out there. Thanks for posting that.

good to hear that people helped, sometimes we are blinded by societyu today. Your neice should be very proud for stepping up and being the leader. Its true that not all rescues end in happiness, but who knows the next one might.

 

congratulations to your neice and all of your family that helped in her upbringing. Thanks for posting

Thanks, Daryn, for posting that. Kinda reaffirms one's faith in humanity, doesn't it? It's a shame they weren't able to save the poor guy, but Caroline and the others should be very proud of the attempt they made.

Its very refreshing to see people take action to help another regardless of the outcome. In this day and time some get so self involved, that they only think of themselves and say heck with the other guy. People are basically good, but in a society were we sue over a spilled cup of coffee, it can even make the good think twice before helping another.

You have all the reason in the world to be proud of her, I wish more would follow the lead that her and the others showed.

It's really nice to see in this day and age, people who will risk their own lives for another. Congratulations to Caroline for stepping up. :headbang: Way to make your family and friends proud!

Wow, kudos to Caroline and the rest of the gang! I have so much respect for a woman willing to climb through mud for a good cause.
