A FAST-THINKING four-year-old has been deemed a ‘superhero’ after saving her mum who had suffered an epileptic fit.

Only child Millie Louise, who attends Ysgol Abererch, was at home in Pwllheli when her mum 23-year-old Natasha Williams collapsed with a seizure.

Keeping a very cool head, Millie went through a series of motions to ensure her mum could get the treatment she urgently required.

“I am not sure what exactly happened, but my neighbour said they heard a crashing or banging noise followed by Millie shouting which is unusual so they came down and tried coming in,” Natasha told the Cambrian News.

“The door was locked and Millie couldn’t turn the lock so she had to find the key which is always kept on top of the electric box in the hallway.

“She wasn’t tall enough to get the key and so she found a box to help her reach and then passed the key through the letterbox for my neighbour to then open the door and let themselves in and help.

“She was so brave to be able to hold it together while her mam was having a seizure on the floor right in front of her.

“I don’t know if I could do that at my age, let alone at four years old! I honestly couldn’t be prouder.

“I’d like to thank my neighbours for helping too.”
