I remember taking a CPR class way back in the ’80’s with the company I was then working for, the very old and dignified gentleman giving the course must have been near retirement age, unfortunately, so was his dummy, which kept slowly deflating in the background. The gentlemen would stop his lecture now and then and with great dignity, blow it back up again. It was surreal, I felt like I was in the middle of a “Carry on” film …
Go a step further and join your local CERT (Community Emergency Response Team). They will train and equip you to respond to local incidents, help your neighbors, learn emergency techniques and of course CPR and AED.

Glad the author made that note. I was thinking I’d just jump in and pound chest!

So Luann saved a life long before Brad ever did. That is something worth remembering.
Also, in later years, both Delta and Bernice SHOULD have treated Luann with considerably MORE respect.

Every now and then, things like this is why I love this strip :)

“I’m on the top of the world lookin’ down on creation
And the only explanation I can find
Is the love that I’ve found ever since you’ve been around
Your love’s put me at the top of the world"
from Top of the World

And Luann stands triumphant! Today feels like a natural endpoint, so I wonder how the arc will close out tomorrow.

Kudos to the strip to on the note about CPR. Having worked in a hospital setting for many years I thank you for the message.
