Los Angeles Rams assistant coach Raheem Morris is speaking out after an emotional reunion with the 3-year-old boyhe helped save from drowning in a Las Vegas pool.
OnGood Morning AmericaFriday, the 46-year-old defensive coordinator shared a hug with Wyatt Stanley and his mom, Kelseigh Stanley.
“It’s truly a miracle when I try to wrap my mind around everything that happened,” Kelseigh toldGMA.
“My kids are all in the pool, and I hear a scream,” Morris said, recalling the incident. “I see Wyatt laying poolside, and he’s blue.”
He added, “And I could just feel the panic of it all, when you’re alone, and I just looked … and asked, ‘Where’s the AED machine?’”

After Oleksyn started CPR and mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, Wyatt registered a pulse and water started coming out of his mouth, Morris said.
“And when he said, ‘He has a pulse,’ I started clapping,” the coach recalled.
While Kelseigh says Wyatt’s prognosis is uncertain, she is giving thanks to Morris and Oleksyn.“It’s hard to say what exactly his future is going to be because he was under the water for so long,” she said. “We are truly so happy that Raheem was there, and Dr. Andrew was there.”
She added, “God placed them all directly where they needed to be.”
