5-yr-old finds mom ‘dead’ and runs to neighbor for help with baby sister in his arms

Unexpectedly, a knock echoed at Jessica Penoyer’s door, and to her surprise, it was her five-year-old neighbor standing there. He held what seemed like a doll in his tiny arms, but upon closer inspection, Jessica realized it was actually his baby sister.

The boy, Salvatore Cicalese, shared startling news that his mother was unconscious in the shower. He recounted how he ingeniously fetched a stool, dragged it to the garage door, and scaled it to reach the switch. Although he admitted to a minor fall on his initial try, he persevered and succeeded on the second attempt.

Upon hearing the alarming news, Jessica swiftly reached for the phone and dialed emergency services. Responders quickly arrived at Salvatore’s residence. Making a beeline for the bathroom, they discovered Salvatore’s mother unconscious in the tub. Were it not for Salvatore’s prompt action, his mother might have succumbed to drowning. His swift thinking undoubtedly played a pivotal role in saving her life.

Following the administration of medical aid, Kaitlyn Cicalese, the mother, began to experience an improvement in her condition.

Describing her ordeal, she recounted suffering a seizure and subsequently losing consciousness. She further shared that following the incident, Salvatore continuously inquired about her well-being, expressing concerns about the possibility of another seizure and her safety. Despite his worries, Kaitlyn reassured him that such an event wouldn’t occur, but acknowledged the comfort in knowing her son would be prepared to assist her if needed.
