    I completely agree. My older sister saved me from drowning when I was 6. That was the day she became more than a sister to me. She became my hero and best friend. We’re 36 and 37 now and I still thank her often.

    A similar thing happened to my little brother when we were about five and two - we were in my grandma's garden on our own, and he started running towards the pond, and of course, he ended up slipping and falling straight in. Luckily, it was a lot less dangerous - the pond was pretty shallow, and my grandma was just at the other end of the garden, looking away for a moment. I remember trying to pull my brother out by grabbing the back of his t-shirt - which didn't work, because I was five! I never thought to yell for help or anything, though - I dread to think what would have happened if it had been a deeper pond and my grandma hadn't heard my brother crying! This girl definitely has WAY better life-saving instincts than I did!
