Good people can often face adversity and sometimes, they can find themselves doubting whether it really pays to do good or join the crowd looking on.Barbados’ latest youth hero is not a scholarship winner; she does not hail from one of the vaunted older secondary schools, neither does she come from a well-to-do family with wealth and social standing.However, she has qualities that Barbadians love and herald – a kind heart and care for others. She is 15-year-old Kerriesha Skeete, a student of the Frederick Smith Secondary School in St James.The teenager, who has been characterised by teachers as a “model student” at her school, rushed to the aid of a man who experienced a seizure while travelling on a public service vehicle a week ago.She utilised the first aid training she received in her cosmetology class to render lifesaving medical assistance.The usual adolescent response to situations like these is to ignore or pull out a cellular phone and begin recording. Kerriesha’s instincts caused her to spring into action and get involved in what was an emergency situation. The driver of the minibus too should be credited for his role, coming to the sick man’s aid by transporting him to the Maurice Byer Polyclinic in St Peter.
