One was lodged in her throat and cut off her air supply. <br />Her 19 -year-old daughter Olivia ran into the room and could tell her Mom was <br />in trouble. She patted her on the back and then began abdominal thrusts also <br />known as the Heimlich maneuver. Fiss has no doubt her daughters' quick <br />thinking saved her life. <br />Abdominal thrusts remain the first life-saving approach for local first <br />responders including Tampa Fire Rescue.
