Ranee,

My prayers are with Amira and all of you. Thank God there was someone
available who knew CPR and could keep a cool head. It is so easy to panic in
a situation like that. I know it will probably be a while before you feel
you can relax again, so I will say an extra prayer for your peace of mind.
