woman saved a man’s life on their first date

Following few weeks of chatting on dating website Plenty of Fish, Janine Hall met her date at the Cheesecake Factory in Missouri.

They had a “wonderful meal and great conversation,” Hall told People.

They continued talking after their meal, until Hall’s date started coughing. She said :
"We weren’t eating so I knew he wasn’t choking. I turned my head to the side to give him some privacy and then the next thing I knew there were dishes falling onto my side of the booth."

Her date stood up and collapsed. Hall said:
"He had glazed-over eyes and blood was coming from his mouth. I checked and he had no heart rate"

Quick-thinking Hall, who’s a former respiratory therapist, began chest compressions and CPR - and his heart rate came back. She followed paramedics to the hospital, and left her card with hospital staff so she could be updated by her date’s family.

She arranged with her date’s daughter to visit him in hospital soon after.
"He looked amazing. And he remembered everything about our conversation at the restaurant. I told him, ‘I never got to thank you for the meal,’ and he said, ‘Oh my god, you saved my life!’"
