A relaxed spa stay in Bad Erlach took an unexpected turn for Manisha Schlenz and her friend. On the first day of their stay, the two women suddenly heard desperate cries of help on the banks of the Pitten River. Three young people who also went for a walk on the river called for help. What should apparently be an ordinary walk quickly turned into a dramatic rescue operation.

The situation escalated when a stroller fell into the water with a 13 -month -old baby. This happened after the child's grandmother suffered a weakness in the weakness during the walk. Many people might have been overwhelmed, but Manisha and Livia did not hesitate long. They jumped into the raging floods to save the child. "The boy was still under water in the stroller, we pulled it out," the two women later reported. "In such a moment you don't think much, you are just acting."

The rescue action

After taking the boy out of the water, the rescuers brought him to a nearby meadow. There they immediately started with life-saving measures such as cardiac massage and mouth-to-mouth ventilation. Their efforts were not unsuccessful; Together with a pastor and a savior of the Red Cross, Wolfgang Woltron, they managed to regain the life of the child. These quick and courageous measures saved the little boy the existence.

Manisha and Livia have now been awarded the NÖN-Leopold for their outstanding action. At the award ceremony, NÖN editor-in-chief Daniel Lohninger and his colleagues were impressed. "You have proven civil courage, this is no longer a matter of course. Thank you for your actions, you saved such a life," were her appreciative words.
