save someone's life

Being in a service field, I’m sure this will happen at some point or another. I’ve donated blood, plasma, etc. for years and am an organ donor, but I’ll never really know about the lives potentially saved from those things. I want to visibly, physically, memorably impact someone’s life so powerfully at least once while I’m on this earth that they can say, “I wouldn’t be alive if not for her.” What an awesome thing to be a part of.

not sure you can plan this one outside of studying in the medical field but im an organ donor and I think that’s a good start..also donated blood one time and they sent me a card with a thank you from a baby but idk if that counts

im certified in first aid and cpr!! maybe i can do this now.

At some point in everyone’s life that has ever existed,
They have saved someone’s life.

I was dating someone that struggled with a really bad drug habbit. One evening he collapsed on the kitchen floor after using a prescription pain patch intravenously. He turned blue and went into respiratory arrest. While he didn’t need chest compressions, I kept breathing air into him every time he would turn blue until the emergency crew arrived. After being intubated and given Narcon to reverse the effects of the drug, he came to. Emergency and hospital personnel told him he would be dead if he would have been alone. I couldn’t stand to think of telling his mother that he had died and I couldn’t save him. Even though we are no longer together, we will always be best friends. His drug habits have improved.

save someone’s life is somthing good for knowing the meaning of life

Someone pointed out to me that I have already completed this goal because I have donated blood many times. While it is undeniably true that donating blood saves lives, that was not what I had in mind when I entered this goal. I want in some way to personally and immediately save someone’s life. So I am not going to check this goal off. I am going to keep it and hope that some day I have the opportunity to save someone’s life, and that I perform well during the emergency and have a successful tail to tell.

Guess I’ll just have to hang out dangerous places more often :D (just kidding)

I think it’d be nice to do this. I want to save someone, even if it be an enemy, and then just smile and go on with my life.

As an RN, I’ve done this many times. Many, many times when I worked in the ER for six years. Now, as a nurse in labor and delivery. I don’t think there’s anything special about it…anyone with the chance would do it. Besides, it’s my job. :-)
