Doctors at the hospital told Darren Ewell he would not have made it if Danya Topham wasn’t there.
MURRAY, Utah — Darren Ewell grew up playing softball. Finally being able to join a rec league after retiring recently, he had little concern for his health.
“My father, grandfather, great grandfather all died of heart attacks," he said"But I'm 57; they were in their 60s.”“I was starting the fourth inning," said Ewell."And all of a sudden, I just woke up in the hospital.” Miraculously, Danya Topham, a registered nurse with Intermountain Healthcare, had just sat down in the bleachers moments before to watch her boys play.
“I heard, 'Call 911!' and I immediately looked out. My angle was right to shortstop," she recalled."I saw Darren laying down, sprawled. I immediately jumped out the chair, ripped off my coat and ran out to him and dropped to the ground.”“I remember when I moved away from him, I said, 'I don't think it's going to make it,'" she said."And it just crushed me.”“I keep on running this back in my mind: 'Why me?'" he said.
Topham, along with police and fire officials who helped that night, all received a Life Saving Award at a city council meeting in Murray on Tuesday. Fire Chief Joseph Mittleman hopes this story will inspire more Utahns to get CPR certified; Murray teaches classes on the second Tuesday of every month at 5 p.m. at Fire Station #81.
