Four-year-old Detroit resident Aiden Mitchell (pictured right)
is being heralded for helping to save his mom's life when she
slipped into a diabetic coma Saturday morning, according to
MyFox Detroit.
At around 9:30 a.m., Mitchell's unidentified uncle began
calling the boy's home to speak with his mom,Angela.
Mitchell told his uncle she was sleeping, but he kept calling
anyway, hoping she'd wake up. But each time he telephoned,
Mitchell would inform him that his mom was still asleep.
Feeling uneasy over why Angela would sleep so long, the
uncle decided to pay his sister a visit. When the uncle
approached the home and rang the doorbell, luckily, Mitchell
was able to unlock the door to let him in.
Angela, who appeared to be sleeping, was in fact breathing
but could not be revived. The uncle called an ambulance and
Angela was rushed to a nearby hospital. According to doctors,
just a mere thirty minutes more and Angela's fate would have
been tragic.
Meanwhile the pint-sized life-saver knows he helped to save
his mom's life. He enthusiastically looked in to a television
camera and said, "I'm a hero!"
