What a brave heroic kid! I say Kudos to this boy’s parents for having such an awesome child!
Lol the story of s bus driver passing out In 2012 also has a blue bird flat bus
Go Michigan. Proud to have this young man be from my state. Also proud of this young man for acting quickly and calmly,
Hope that the bus driver is alright. It looked like she knew that something was wrong. I’m thinking she could have had a seizure of some type or a stroke. Prayers are with this driver
