# 151 Parents saved their son choking from Cereal
Sep 19th 2024
"Your product saved my three-year-old son’s life this morning! He was eating his cereal and I was making coffee; I assume he chewed it into mush and aspirated on that, at some point I looked at him, he walked over to me and was blue, I tried the Heimlich maneuver, but it did not work, and he passed out. Heimlich on a toddler is hard and was not working. I called 911 and got the Dechoker out of the drawer, my wife used it and it worked immediately to clear his airway before I was finished giving our address to 911. Paramedics came and were so happy to see him breathing on his own.” A.H.
