- Abstract
The article reports on a husband and wife, who both happen to be doctors, and their attempt to spend a day skiing with their son, but become enlisted to save a stranger's life. The wife heads to the ladies' room during their lunch break and is then directed to a collapsed male skier in the men's room. She states that this situation feels like a dream and hopes that someone will come to rescue her from this unexpected crisis. She instructs a ski lodge employee to find her husband who is also a doctor. Their life saving attempts are not successful.
