2 babies in 4 hours!

Daniel Yaso, an MDA EMT and ambulance driver for the past three years has treated thousands of patients with a wide variety of cases but had yet to deliver a baby.

Last week he began the morning shift in a routine manner but he ended up getting called to deliver not one, but two babies to Israeli parents in Netanya!

Yaso said excitedly: "For three years I was waiting for this moment. During the MDA medics course I learned how to deliver a baby and also practised it with smart dolls, but I was a little worried about the first birth I would have to do on my own. I received a double dose of joy in one day and helped delivered two healthy, cute babies. In my first birth, I was a little nervous. By the second birth I was already more experienced and relaxed. Now I'm already looking forward to the next case!

The new parents said "Daniel was really professional and we were impressed by his calmness and seriousness. One moment he was driving the ambulance and as soon as the EMT who was with him told him that the birth had started, he stopped at the side of the road and together they helped birth our daughter. We were both very relaxed, thanks to them and we are very thankful to them for helping us in these happy moments. We have no words to thank them.. G-D really sent him specifically to help us. "

Congratulations to the happy parents! ... See MoreSee Less
