KELSO, Wash. — When six-year-old Katja Field’s mom was suffering a medical emergency earlier this year, Katja calmly called 911 and stayed on the line until help arrived.
Her mother, Rachel, ended up OK, thanks to her daughter and the paramedics who helped her.
On Friday, Firefighters with Cowlitz Fire and Rescue District 2 gave Katja an award for her actions. They gave her a sterling silver citizen award coin, a framed award signed by the Fire Chief and a firefighter’s helmet filled with candy. Katja also got to take a ride in the fire engine around the block.
