Alomere Health custodian Kendal Hofstad is being called a savior for being in the right place at the right time on April 29 when he saw anesthesiologist Doctor Amos Szajner out like a light on the hospital floor.
Kendal was walking inside of the hospital picking up the garbage to be thrown away, he saw the doctor out on the floor after Amos was going to get himself an exam after he had experienced symptoms related to the flu which did not turn out as he had planned.
Doctor Daniel James Tiede examined Amos and found out that Amos had a blood clot in one of his main arteries which could have been fatal due to a brain or heart injury.
Doctor Tiede was able to use a heart pump to revive Amos who has made a complete recovery and is back at work.
I would say that Kendal is Amos guardian angel.

This definitely could have turned out to be a fatal occurrence if not for the custodian.

It's amazing that most of your stories have people at the right place and the right time. Good story.

It does seem that most of the good news stories have the theme of a guardian angel or right place at the right time theme.
