That is my fiance, Doug! My colleague saw your post and sent it to me. I asked him if he had saved a child from chocking in La Mesa. He looked so puzzled, like how in the world could I know that! I told him how I learned about his heroics -his reaction was so gracious. He said he was amazed that after all this time you still remember him. He was more grateful that his quick actions had such a lasting impact! But that’s my Doug! He is an amazing man and person!
Yo-Yo Ma has unbelievable talent. The man is a genius in the purest form.
Oh my gosh what a small world!!! The man on the left saved my 2 year old daughter from choking in 1987 at the carlos murphy restaurant in La mesa!! I remember he said his name was Doug when I thanked him!!!!!!!! He has the same smile with just more grey hair. God Bless him..
