MY Y STORYTHE CLINES
I have been told many times by the doctors and medical staff that I saved Steve’s life and his brain function in those minutes that I administered CPR. I have been called a hero. I don't know if I am a hero. What I do know is that I was able to save my husband’s life because I was strong physically from coming regularly to strength and barbell classes at the YMCA. — Annette Cline
