9.Iria Wolnick was traveling on Highway 77just after midnight July 5in rural Texas when she saw the scene of a terrible accident.All three occupants-a father and a pregnant mother,and their 2-year-old daughter-had been thrown onto a field.
The mother,Niser,asked Wolnick if her unborn baby was OK,and that was when Wolnick noticed a huge wound on the woman's abdomen (腹),heard a baby's cries and saw a head and a tiny hand emerging from the wound.
"she kept asking,‘How's my baby?'"Wolnick said."My reaction was to spring into action and did what I could."
Working off mostly instinct (直觉) and some first-aid training,Wolnick delivered (接生) the six pound,11ounce baby named Emma Lyn Anahi Ortega.A passing truck driver managed to tie off the umbilical cord (脐带) with his shoelace.
The mother was soon taken to a hospital,where she was pronounced dead.The father and the two-year-old girl survived without serious injury.
Now Wolnick has been honoured by police for her bravery and presented with a medal.
"Her actions were truly rare and heroic.If it hadn't been for her,two people would have died that night."Captain Les Bishop said he had never heard a highway rescue story like it.
"For someone with limited training,to do something well like this,she deserves this and a lot more,"he said.
Wolnick already had a heavy heart that morning:She was on her way to her mother's funeral in Brownsville,which she said gave the birth special meaning and a sense of spiritual balance.
"I was given the opportunity to bring life into the world in those conditions,"She said."It's not something that happens every day."
