Amanda Coll and her seven year-old son with cerebral palsy were riding on a modified scooter when they hit a puddle and fell. Suddenly, she realized her son was unconscious. She had no phone on her, and the park was nearly empty. Desperate, she shouted for help. Five teenagers, sheltering under a picnic cover from the drizzle, immediately came sprinting. One called an ambulance. One chased down Coll's frightened younger son. Two stationed themselves at the park entrance to flag down the paramedics. And one wrapped a blanket around Coll's unconscious son, draped another over her shaking shoulders, and genuinely offered encouragement: "You're doing a great job as a mum." Eventually, they made it to the hospital, and the son recovered fully. But what lingers is the way five young strangers, without hesitation or instruction, jumped to help out a family in need, dividing up exactly what was needed and taking action.
