Betsy Moody's husband returned home from work freezing, shaken, soaking wet and with a little knife in his pocket that he'd been telling himself 'just not to drop'. It's why she loves him so much, she says.
Leo Moody was wet and cold because he'd just jumped into a freezing river in Kossuth Twp, north-east of Portland, to save a three-month-old baby trapped in a child seat in a car that overturned in front of him. The knife he uses for whittling and peeling apples came in handy to cut those seat straps real quick. But his hands were so cold underwater he just hoped he wouldn't drop it.
He held his nerve and his little paring knife but sadly, the baby was not breathing and unresponsive.
Luckily, another passing Samaritan, Wade Shorey, was able to take the baby girl Leo passed up the riverbank and perform CPR. The little one is now recovering in hospital.
