After listening to the 911 call again, I need to correct my previous post.
I’m paraphrasing, but I’ll link the call below.
Dispatcher: Do you know CPR?
He says no.
Dispatcher: Okay I’ll walk you through it until EMS gets there.
He replies “OHHH GOD” in such a way that it’s obvious he doesn’t want to do it.
(You can tell the dispatcher is so surprised by his response that she thinks he’s talking to someone else.)
Dispatcher: Hello?
He responds, “yes, hi. I’m here.”
Dispatcher: You want to do CPR with me over the phone until they get there?
His response is “well I guess I have to, right?”
I mean dude!! You are wasting precious time here. He should have been begging this woman to coach him through CPR, not hemming and hawing about having to do it. And who sees a knife sticking out of someone’s chest and thinks “oh my god, she’s stabbed herself!” He then realizes that maybe he’s said too much, so he says “she fell on her knife!” The whole thing is so bizarre and just sounds so put on to me.
Anyway, I thought I needed to do the responsible thing and correct my mistake.
