Benjamin Ford who is a fifth grade student at Greenwood Elementary School used his training on how to deal with anyone who has a hard time breathing after the person is choking on a food particle. Benjamin was having lunch at school when his classmate whose name was not mentioned was having a hard time breathing after a food object was stuck in her throat. After the story of the heroic act by Benjamin to save the life of a fellow student during lunch was reported all over school, Benjamin as well as his parents were cheered by the teachers and students for playing the role of a hero in saving a life of another person. One thing I will say about Benjamin's parents, they raised him right by teaching him how to assist anyone who is choking on his or her food. Benjamin is a fan of video games as well as the Black Panther character since his parents are to take him to see the movie as a reward for his heroic actions. The female student who Benjamin saved thank him for saving her life. Now that is a nice story to report on this site to counter all of the darkness in the world today.
