Damien Galvin, the father was on his way to work when he got a call. At other times he doesn't pick up calls when he is driving but this time he did. On receiving, he heard his daughter Priya crying and saying something. He asked Priya to explain what had happened. Priya then turned the camera to show her mother, Mary, lying on the floor looking distressed.

The paramedics told Damien that it was all about time and the little one was the real hero in saving Mary's life. A little delay may have worsened the situation. "I met Mary's surgeon when I was on my way up to her and I thanked him for what he had done and he said there is no need to thank me for a job that I do every day, you have a little five year old girl who is the real hero," Damien told in the report.
Damien had taught Priya how to FaceTime on Apple iPad just a couple of months ago so that she could speak to her cousins and grandparents. And while a lot of parents are still not sure about giving kids so much accessibility to technology, Galvin family is thankful that she used it well and saved a life.
