He Was 95. Choking. And Back Blows Weren't Working.
On January 2nd, 2026, a 95-year-old man sat down for something as ordinary as a sandwich.
Within moments, he was choking. A piece had completely blocked his airway.
His family acted fast. But because of his age and frailty, and the fact that he uses a wheelchair, standard back blows were the only option available to them. They tried. Again and again.
Nothing moved.
The obstruction wasn't shifting. Time was running out.
That's when LifeVac was used.
Right there, in his wheelchair, in a seated position, the device was placed and applied. On the third attempt, LifeVac dislodged the piece of sandwich.
He could breathe again.
His daughter said it best:
"It happened so quickly that father was not traumatised. Very simple to use and my father would have been dead without LifeVac."
This wasn't a worst-case scenario they had planned for. It was a Tuesday afternoon. A sandwich. A father who nearly didn't make it.
LifeVac takes 30 seconds to learn and works when nothing else can.
Not in your home yet? Now is the time.
