Kind-hearted EMT stops to help teen tie his tie for prom
EMTs help people who are in need. This usually only applies to medical emergencies, but this particular EMT in Pennsylvania was also more than prepared to help in a fashion emergency as well.
Mary Terrinoni and Jared Bryer were in their ambulance when a prom-bound teen approached them. He needed help with tying his tie. Without hesitation, Bryer got out to assist the young man and while he was doing so, Terrinoni took the photo below.
According to local news outlet KCEN, Bryer didn't make much of the situation. “I felt fine,” Bryer told them, “I haven’t tied a tie in a while.”
His EMT partner Terrinoni, however, was touched and posted the photo she took to Facebook with the caption, "My heart was pretty full watching my partner step in to help him out. This is what it's all about!" The photo has since garnered over 4,000 shares and hundreds of similarly positive comments.
Good deeds definitely do go far.
