***Howard K. Sterns statement that the first thing he did was to check Daniels pulse to be troubling***
After all, he’s not a doctor!
Just curious, how many people here would check the pulse of a 20 year-old whose mother is screaming; “Daniel’s not breathing”.
I think I would shake him, slap his face and look at his eyes.
This sounds gross but if Daniel looked anything like he looked in that picture I would have gone for a pulse too. It was pretty obvious that the poor child had passed on. One question though...did he die in his sleep or do they think he may have been awake? His eyes were partially open but maybe that was due to them drying out during the resucitation process. I’m just speculating and have no idea how the body reacts after death.
