7-year-old Superhero Saves Toddler from Drowning

Massiah was swimming at his apartment complex when playtime quickly escalated into an urgent call to action, activating his inner superhero. The 7-year-old saw a little boy at the bottom of the pool and quickly darted through 6 feet of water to pull him up by his arms and bring him to the surface. After Massiah rescued the toddler, adults performed CPR while waiting for emergency staff to arrive. The little boy was taken to the hospital and survived the trauma. Massiah’s quick action helped save his life. He was nominated by his mom, who is so proud of his courageous actions. Kids Wish Network is elated to honor Massiah as a Hero.
