>>>4. A tongue stuck to the roof of the mouth is normal. It just means that the person is dreaming of Peanut Butter.
LOL! Also, two more. Always have a mirror handy to check for breathing, and Rubbing of the Feet is an integral part of the CPR process.>>>

Don't forget to have a water bottle handy to pour down someone's throat. For what I have no idea, but since three different medical professionals thought it was a good idea, I thought we could recommend it.

Addition..
When talking about the incident never use medical terms. Use terms that everyone will understand.

Cyanosis = "her lips didn't look right"

As an addendum to the Medical List, a List of Cultural Updates should be made:

1. Feathers/sequins are the new 'black' in funeral attire.

2. All brides should buy their own engagement rings (only applies if over ten carats and/or is large enough to be picked up on radar).

3. Illegal squatting is the new 'nesting.'

4. All duly licensed Medical Examiners are more camera ready than Paris Hilton.

Oh Riiiight. The handy water bottle to pour water down an unconscious persons throat is vital. Good one!
