The Intelligent and Brave Alexandra
According to reports by American media on the 24th, a man in Manteca, California, USA collapsed at home. His 3-year-old daughter ran to a fire station several blocks away to report the emergency and seek help, eventually allowing her father to be rushed to the hospital by firefighters for treatment. Doctors stated that if it weren't for the little girl's timely report and rescue request, her father would not have survived.
Only the Father and the 3-Year-Old Girl Were Home
According to the report, the 3-year-old girl, Alexandra Tafolla, lives with her parents in Manteca, California, USA. On August 20 of this year, Alexandra's father Frank accidentally took the wrong medication at home, causing him to suddenly lose consciousness and collapse in the living room. At the time, apart from Frank, only 3-year-old Alexandra was at home.
Unexpectedly, when Alexandra realized that her father had no response, she ran alone to Fire Station 243 in Manteca, several blocks away, to report the emergency and ask for help!
Apparently, this was Alexandra's first visit to this fire station. When she looked around confusedly trying to find the firefighters, it caught the attention of several strangers. Once they learned that the young Alexandra had come to the fire station to report an emergency, they immediately took her inside.
Timely Alarm Saved Her Father's Life
Alexandra told the firefighters that her father was "frozen stiff" at home and she couldn't wake him up. The firefighters immediately followed her to her house under her guidance and rushed the unconscious Frank to the nearby hospital for emergency treatment. Thanks to the doctors' prompt treatment, Frank finally regained consciousness and his life was out of danger. Not long after, he was discharged from the hospital and returned home.
Doctors said that if it weren't for Alexandra's quick reaction and timely alarm, Frank might already be deceased.
The Earlier Teachings Played a Role
The calmness of the 3-year-old girl in reporting the emergency and saving her father's life has become a widely discussed "beautiful story" in American media. Alexandra has been hailed as a "little hero" by local firefighters.
According to Alexandra's mother, the reason why Alexandra knew about this fire station is because her family often drove past the road in front of the fire station. Every time they passed by, Alexandra's mother would frequently tell her daughter that the firefighters were all her friends. If she encountered difficulties, she could seek help from the firefighters. However, Alexandra's parents never dreamed that their earlier teachings would prove crucial in such a critical moment.
