Life Saving Lip Service

#1 Postby southerngale » Tue Nov 11, 2003 2:43 pm

BRUSSELS - Former ambulance driver Leo Van Aert was able to use his handy first aid skills to save the life of one of his pond fish by using mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. Van Aert was so delighted that his cherished koi would live that he wanted to name it after one of his grandchildren. He had been enjoying a party at his residence when his wife noticed the fish - a spotted Japanese carp - floating on the surface of the garden pond. The koi was "acting funny," swimming and jumping before coming to a dead halt in the water. Worried that the fish had a heart attack, Van Aert pulled it out of the pond, giving it heart massages before touching his lips to the fish. "After 15 minutes, the fish started to move again so I put him in the pond...but when he fell over again I again applied mouth-to-mouth and heart massages," Van Aert said. "That's when the fish recovered."
