Struck by lightning

Isaiah Cormier and his girlfriend, Juliette Moore,
were camping in Nederland, Colorado
When Cormier was struck by lightning
while standing next to their tent.
Moore checked for his breathing and pulse,
and found none.
Thankfully, she was prepared.
After administering 2 rounds of CPR,
Cormier started breathing.
By the time an ambulance arrived,
it became clear that Cormier was going to
be alright, thanks to the CPR.
“I could hear the EMT laughing with
him in the back,” Moore said.
“I knew that at the very least, he was himself.”
Doctors confirmed he was okay, and
he was released less than 2 days later.
“There is no doubt that I would be
dead. I was not breathing,” he said.
“It stopped my heart but thankfully Juliette was there.”
Both Cormier and Moore agree that
having the lifesaving skills—
but not needing them
is a very good thing.
Now they’re hosting a CPR training
event for their friends, family, and teams.
