3-year-old dials 911 using song

Teaching your kids little songs to remember important things like their address or what number to dial for help seems like a great idea. It certainly was for one Oklahoma mom.

Jessica Eaves taught her daughter, Madelyn, the song a week before she fainted due to a medical condition called vasovagal syncope (vayzo-vay-gal SIN’-kuh-pea).

When the 24-year-old and 3-months-pregnant Eaves fainted, Madelyn picked up her mother’s BlackBerry phone.

She pressed 911 and the green button and was connected to a dispatcher.

In the recently released 911 call, Madelyn was able to answer questions about her house and cars outside that led emergency workers to the home.
