Letter: Thanks to therapist for Heimlich maneuver

Thanks to Dr. Mike Miller, a physical therapist at Lourdes Medical Center, I am alive to greet 2017.

We were watching the Huskies play when I choked on a bite of sandwich. He heard me gasp, and asked if I needed help. I nodded and stood, he reached around me and performed the Heimlich maneuver. Seconds later, I was able to breathe.

Enjoy your good health and loved ones while you are able.
