A day after a school teacher's quick action to help a choking student, she reflected on the enormity of what happened.

The tense moments started inside a classroom but ended like a textbook example of how to handle a choking emergency.

"I was actually sitting right here at my desk. We were reading a novel, listening to it being read," Krum High School English teacher Carly Lovelace recalled. "I look up and I see my student in distress.""According to my students, I sprinted after her," Lovelace said. "Before I knew it, we were both here in the hallway, where I could see it was very visible she was choking on something.

"I knew that because of her facial expression. I’m lucky I have experience in early childhood care, so you never forget what the ‘help me I’m choking’ face looks like," Lovelace said. "So every siren went off in my brain that said, ‘Carly, she is in distress. Go help her.’" The hallway video shows Lovelace, with her arms around the girl, firmly doing quick compressions, and the cap dislodging from her throat."I have a long history of early childhood education and that is something that occurs when small children are eating, and it’s something you always have to be hypervigilant about and aware of all times," she said.
