She's so lucky it happened in the store and not when she left and was driving. Thankfully both are safe.

This woman did not panic! She was “present” the entire time. Amazing!

[klara]

The most important thing was that the woman was alert and calm without panic. She made a really great job!

[billycasper]

This woman told the complete story concisely and quickly. Reporters mess it up. Thank you for letting her talk herself.

[madisonwimberly]

Props to that woman and the customer that willing held the baby with no hesitation

[jazmineflora]

The fact that the cashier realized what was going on and was able to grab the baby before the lady collapsed is amazing.

[maratorres]

She was being strong and trying to stay alert until the woman took her baby and then her body finally gave in as soon as the baby was safe.

I hope she ended up getting a service dog. They can sense seizures before they even start, and hopefully alert her to put the baby down in time. But I know this was several years ago. Hope they’re both doing okay! Bless that woman for being aware and taking action.

She was probably screaming in her head for that woman to take her child because she went out right when her baby was taken from her. That poor woman, she got very lucky this day to have caring people who took action.

The fact that she fell after the baby fully was out of her grip makes me think she was putting up a fight to keep her baby from not falling

I’m 4 years late but she’s a legend, she saved a child from injury

[dentalnovember]

This is what society is supposed to be. I am so thankful for all people involved in helping this mother.

[hereiam]

4 years later Youtube just wants us to not forget this woman who saved the baby .

[benyawsky]

I can't imagine why is there a dislike in this kind of heroic act.

[solarash]

The dude left his wallet on the counter to help the woman, respect

[seatherny_y]

I know this is a late comment but I just want to thank this woman. I am epileptic myself and it was very nice to see this lady help her and not get scared and panic.

[brooklynwilson]

I have seizures. The woman fought off her seizure until her baby was safe. Fighting off a seizure is one of the hardest things to do.

[kkaylabaybie]

as someone who has had seizures like this, , , this brought me to tears. i cant imagine being a mother and dealing with seizures at the same time

[aintreal]

She looks like that legendary aunt everyone needs

[sheilaschultz]

I'm so sorry that some people have to go through this.🥺
