Yes, three times. Once at a music festival. The lady stop breathing because it was so hot, and she fell over. I gave her three oral breath and she started breathing on her own. One man in an car accident was making gurling sounds and slump over in the drivers seat. I couldn't give him CPR because the car was down in a ditch and we couldn't get him out and I couldn't reach him. So I grab his hair from the back window and pulled his head upright so that his airway wouldn't be obstructed. The Emergency crew came 30 minutes later and they took over. Happened in Jackson, Mississippi. Didn't know if he made it or not. On the third one I came upon an car accident where they have taken the woman out of the car and laid her on the side of the road. A man was already giving chest compression without checking the breathing, so I told him I knew CPR and I took control of the situation and started giving her mouth to mouth. It was difficult to put air into her lungs because the air kept going into her stomach instead of her lungs. (Couldn't eat chili for a month after wards ) The emergency crew came and took over and I learned later that she died at the hospital. Doing CPR on a dummy in class is SO different from real life. With my luck. I now carry a pair of disposable gloves and a one way valve airway.

Yes - I have given CPR to a dozen or so patients. It's part of the job.
