>Was he pale at the surface, like white as a sheet? He was pale on initial surface, but really more of an ashen pale color, not the "white as a sheet" type. >Did you give 02 during CPR? Did the cyanosis go away first or did his skin color >come back from pale to 'rosy' first? You guys did good. Constant flow after the diver began breathing on his own, then a demand unit was used. During actual CPR? No. Only afterward. I didn't really notice his skin color change as he was being revived... I think I was concentrating on helping turn him on his side everytime he would throw up during the revival process (which must have been 8 to 10 times in a 15 minute period).

Truth is gray, and it is our job to seek out the truths we wish to follow, remembering never to judge the truths of others. Keep in mind that the difference between right and wrong can be infinitely small if you examine the problem from enough perspectives... and the ability to consider other perspectives is a sign of an advanced soul.
