 "DAKOTA, CAN YOU HEAR ME?"

"Momma I'm scared!"

"Please respond baby, I love you!"

"Somebody call 911!"

     Dakota Hobbs, who had passed out in the middle of the store, was surrounded by her mother and younger brother crying and on their knees. With her mother being startled and her little brother stunned, everything that the dispatcher was saying, went in one and ear and out the other. At the last moment Dacia, Dakota's mom, snapped back to reality and began speaking with the dispatcher on the other end of the line. She explained everything while Deandre, Dakota's brother set cradling her on the cold, bare floor. Dakota was picked up and brought to the front of the store by one of the security guards while they waited for the ambulance. Her mother loosened up, when she realized her daughter still had a pulse. This was all weird because before this happened she was joking around with her little brother while her mother stood to the side and smiled. A matter of seconds later, the mood changed and Dakota was on the ground unresponsive.
