When 77 year old Eileen O'Hara found herself in a medical emergency, she dialed the only number she could think of off the top of her head. Instead of reaching her daughter, however, she reached Stephen Dykens who happened to be driving very near to her house at the time. The young man wasn't sure how to respond to the call at first but when Eileen told him she thought she was having a stroke, he immediately leapt into action. He got her address and, upon realizing how close he was to her home, he changed course and headed straight to her house. He and his passenger knocked on the door and then waited with Eileen after calling emergency services. Their quick action and kindness helped save her life.
