Zoe,
This is QUITE a story, that you told, and I have had a few incidences myself, using the Heimlich Maneuver!
I haven't checked on the links in some of my Newsletters for a few years, so I'm GRATEFUL, that you brought this DEAD link to the VERY IMPORTANT Heimlich Maneuver to my attention. I couldn't find the DEAD link doing a google search or using the Wayback Machine and so I added your link to my new NATURAL EMERGENCY CARE Links Web-Page, that I have just posted on my website and here's the link to the Heimlich Maneuver (+ choking).
