1. In an instant, a DoorDash driver went from delivering a pizza to saving a life.
\nSophia Furtado was making a late-night delivery in Fairhaven MA, but when she approached the house, she saw Caryn Hebert Sullivan lying outside, bleeding from her head.
\nSullivan has a bad knee, and says she turned while walking and fell, head-first. Furtado had previous medical knowledge from her time training as an Emergency Medical Technician.
\nShe yelled for help, waking Sullivan\u2019s husband, who called 911. Furtado stabilized Sullivan\u2019s neck and didn\u2019t move until medics arrived. Sullivan was hospitalized for 3 weeks but was on hand to see Furtado receive an award from the local police department, and a $1,000 educational grant from DoorDash. Sullivan says she\u2019s \u201cso thankful\u201d for Furtado, her lifesaving skills, and their new friendship, and said: \u201cShe\u2019s my guardian angel.\u201d<\/p>\n

2. Remember last week, when a guy with no flying experience landed a plane in Florida after the pilot passed out? Well, it turned out that pilot had a “severe cardiac event” . . . basically, a big tear in his aorta. But because passenger Darren Harrison landed so quickly, he survived it. He got released on Monday, and he’s home recovering.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Today’s Good News ","protected":false},"author":15,"featured_media":29475,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"featured_img_display":"Yes","footnotes":""},"categories":[3096],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-29658","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-good-news"],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-04-13 01:07:32","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"react_link":"https:\/\/country929.com\/blogs\/good-news\/2022\/05\/passenger-lands-a-plane-and-door-dash-hero\/","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29658","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/15"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=29658"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29658\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":29659,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29658\/revisions\/29659"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/29475"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=29658"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=29658"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/briwebapp.net\/cfcofm\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=29658"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
