Some of you all may have read this on Boater Talk but I thought I would
post the link here too as it is an instructive case where lots of
things worked well - In short victim - went under log in her kayak -
group was able to pull her out - her sprayskirt caught on root ball -
by the time she was freed - CPR was needed. Pulse returned. About 90
seconds later with rescue breathing cont - she began to breath on her
own. She was airlifted out....

By the next morning she was conscious and her ventilator and intubation
device was removed. I visited it with her Sunday afternoon and she was
largely coherant -

amazing - amazing - amazing - really awesome....
