12-Year-Old Sister Saves Twin Brother Choking On Cheese During Lunch - Inspirational Videos

One young woman is a hero after she sprang into action when she spotted her twin brother in extreme distress.

Anyone with siblings knows there are a lot of fights and disagreements growing up. As much as parents would like their children to get along, it’s not likely to happen, at least not during adolescence. However, as one young lady showed, most of the time, beneath all those heated arguments and sharp words is love.

A clip posted to YouTube shows the moment a 12-year-old boy started choking during lunch in a Massachusetts school cafeteria. A piece of cheese had become lodged in 12-year-old Charlie Loverme’s throat. At the time, Charlie admitted he feared the worst.

“I thought I was going to pass out or maybe die,” Charlie said.

Charlie also added that during the scary situation, he began reaching and grabbing for his throat. He was trying to signal to the other children around him that he was choking and desperately needed help.

But, as the video shows, the other children did not understand Charlie’s signal for help. Instead, his classmates quickly vacated the area. The video mentions that they believed Charlie was about to get sick and vomit.

Thankfully, though, Charlie’s twin sister Amelia stepped up and sprang into action. The video shows the young woman standing and then quickly administering the Heimlich maneuver. Seconds later, everything appears to be Ok. 

Amelia, who saved her brother’s life, mentioned what made her perform the lifesaving move.

“I just knew that he was choking because his face was turning a different color,” she said.

Thank God Amelia was there and knew exactly what to do to save her twin sibling’s life. She stepped up when others, as the video shows, backed away from Charlie. She is a true hero in every sense of the word.
