PHILADELPHIA - December 28, 2012 (WPVI) -- A man from England wanted to 
thank the woman who may have saved his life after he suffered a heart 
attack on the Broad Street subway. She talked with Action News Friday 
night.

.

49-year-old Edith Haage, a physical therapist from Hatboro, Pa., normally 
watches the Eagles on TV, but a remarkable chain of events put her at last 
week's game against the Bengals, and ultimately onboard a SEPTA train 
where she would end up helping to save a man visiting from England.

.

"This was my first Eagles game," said Haage.

.

They decided to take the train. They left a little early when it was clear 
the Eagles would lose, and took the SEPTA Broad Street line home.

.

"Two seconds later, somebody screamed, 'Does anyone know CPR?' and I went, 
'Oh, that's not good,'" she said.

.

67-year-old Ritchie Gladstone was with his son John and daughter-in-law 
Sabina on the same train car on their way to their hotel when he suffered 
a massive heart attack and collapsed.

.

"All I remember is shouting for the train to stop and this woman just 
absolutely took control of everything," said Sabina Gladstone.

.

"He was grayish, pale, his lips were already blue," said Edith.

.

Haage knew she had to act quickly and pointed to four other passengers to 
lower him to the floor so she could perform CPR.

.

"It was kind of the worst case scenario to try to do CPR in an unstable 
environment, in a moving train," she said.

.

Doctors at Jefferson believe those first few minutes of CPR may have saved 
Gladstone's life. His family agrees.

.

"She took control, got him on the floor, cleared his airways, started CPR, 
I mean she saved his life," said Sabina Gladstone.
