4-year-old saves pregnant mother after calling 911 when she has a seizure

Talk about keeping cool during a crisis.  Calise Manning, a four year old from Kalamazoo, Michigan, is being praised for saving the life of her pregnant mother Centerria by calling 911 while her mum was having an epileptic seizure.

Centerria, who was nine months pregnant at the time of the incident, said that she was alone in the house with the toddler when she experienced the attack and blacked out.

In a report by the WWMT news channel, Centerria said: "I got up and that's all I can remember. I woke up and my daughter Calise, was standing over me and she was on the phone with 911."

According to the woman, she has been teaching her daughter what to do in an emergency because she knew she was an epileptic.

"I was so proud of her, because we practice and I teach her because I am epileptic...I teach her the address and my full name and things like that, and how to dial 9-1-1," she said to WWMT.

For the duration of the call, dispatchers noted that the child was very calm and to the point, giving them crucial information that helped them determine Centerria's condition and get to their home sooner.

"She's shaking and she's having a baby. My mom is really pregnant and she's having a boy and she really needs help," Calise said in the audio recording from 911 dispatch call.

Centerria was immediately taken to the hospital where she delivered a healthy baby boy she named TJ.

In a guesting on Fox and Friends, the four year old said she really enjoyed the ambulance ride with her mum and the feeling that her mother was really proud of her.

According to a report by the dailymail.uk, the proud big sister has since received a special award from their church for her courage and keeping a level head during a scary situation.
