5 Year Old from Plymouth Meeting Saves Mom’s Life by Using ‘Alexa’ to Call for Help!
What a story! This is a great lesson on how kids knowing technology is important!
Our friends at 6abc have all the details:
Tyrion Spann, 5, called his grandmother on Alexa to help save his mom’s life!
“I thought he was laughing or joking and it turns out he was crying,” said Neal. “I’m telling him to calm down and he told me he couldn’t wake his mom up. So, of course being her mom, my heart kind of fell to the ground a little bit.”
Tyrion’s mom Jasmine, has epilepsy and was in the middle of the worst seizure she’s ever had. The only other person home was Tyrion.
“As a parent with a child who has epilepsy, who lives on her own, that’s a call I didn’t want to get because it could mean anything,” said Neal. “It could literally mean anything, so the first thing I had to do was realize he had my child’s life in his hands, so to speak because I’m an hour away. So, I told him what I was going to do before I even did it, which was call 911.”
