Furniture mover saved Galway woman’s life with CPR

From furniture mover to life-saver — a young Nat Ross worker has been hailed an “absolute hero” for using CPR to save a woman’s life.

On the first anniversary of her near-death experience, the family of Ita Winston, from Galway, said they will be forever grateful to Emmet O’Sullivan for saving her life.

Ita’s husband, Barney, said if it wasn’t for Emmet’s quick thinking and CPR that morning, his wife, a mother of three and grandmother of four, would have died.
