You don't have kids do you? Logic does not apply to children .. and some
adults. A nice feel good story

Hello

I just don't understand why a six year old would
place a dollar coin in her mouth.

Bus driver saves girl from choking on dollar coin

A FAST-ACTING bus driver has saved the life of a six-year-old
schoolgirl who collapsed and turned blue after she choked on
a dollar coin while on her journey home.

Debbie Smith pulled over in the middle of a Springfield
roundabout, while students carried a pale and blue-lipped
Abbie Von Schie to the front of the bus.

The girl was choking, gasping and panicking in front of her
two older sisters and brother, and other students, on their
way home from St Augustine's College.

Mrs Smith, a mother and grandmother, tapped between the
little girl's shoulders and squeezed her chest to dislodge
the coin.

Mother Debbie Von Schie this morning tearfully presented
Mrs Smith with chocolates, flowers and her everlasting
gratitude.

"Words cannot express how thankful I am,"
Mrs Von Schie said.
