Write a letter to the editor of a newspaper praising the work of paramedics who were able to assist in reviving a person who almost drowned at their local pool.
Letter to the Editor:

I read the story you printed about the elderly man who almost drowned at the local pool and felt that I should add some context to that incident.

I was swimming at the pool that day as I normally do on the weekends, and I remember seeing the elderly man come into the pool to do his laps. I knew this man, as I had seen him every weekend when I would go swimming there at the pool. I did not know him personally, but he did seem friendly and we would wave and say hi to each other in passing.

On this particular day, I saw the man do a lap in the pool, go underwater, and then not come back up. I began to worry as about 10-20 seconds had passed and he never surfaced. I decided to check on him, and when I swam to him I saw he was lying on the bottom of the pool, appearing to be unresponsive. I dove down to the man and pulled him up to the surface and started doing CPR on him. 

Luckily, medics responded quickly to our location and take over chest compressions and rescue breaths. One of the medics told me that I did a good job doing CPR on the man and that it may have saved his life. The medic also told me that they were able to get a pulse on the man and that they would transport him to the hospital for evaluation.

I just wanted to write this letter to let you and your readers know that I was extremely proud of the work the medics did in applying life-saving measures to the man. I also heard that he has since been released from the hospital in better health. If he is reading this, I want to tell him that I don't know what caused him to almost drown, but I hope and pray for better health for him, and am glad he is doing better.
