Roadside Rescued Baby Remains in Hospital
A nightmare come true for Pamela Rauseo.
Her 5-month old nephew, Sebastian de la Cruz, was turning blue, having some sort of respiratory problem while she was driving along the Dolphin Expressway.
She stopped traffic and begged for someone to help...but no one stepped forward.
So Rauseo, who learned CPR 7 years ago, went into autopilot mode and started giving her nephew chest compressions and mouth-to-mouth resucitation until paramedics arrived.
The baby is expected to be ok.
