Tight end for the Baltimore Ravens Mark Andrews saves the life of a woman in a Southwest Airlines flight.

Tight end Mark Andrews of the Baltimore Ravens was quick on his feet and saved the life of another passenger on an airplane.

Andrews took a Southwest Airlines journey from Baltimore to Phoenix on Thursday. He spends the off-season in Phoenix.

A female passenger had a medical emergency during the flight. Her heart beat slowly, and it was hard for her to breathe.

A doctor and nurse were on board, and while they were treating the woman, Andrews, who has Type 1 diabetes, offered to let her use his blood sugar kit.

The medical staff was able to utilize the kit to help the woman stay stable until the airplane landed. After that, she was taken somewhere else to get more care. No one knows how she is doing.

That what happened was told by Andrew Springs, another passenger on the flight, who was shocked by what Mark Andrews and the others did.

Springs also said that when the aircraft landed and everyone was free to leave, Mark Andrews did the same thing as everyone else and no one paid him any extra attention.

Andrews was only nine years old when he was told he had Type 1 Diabetes. Even though he was told he had diabetes, he has never let it stop him from playing football. He has also used his fame to speak out against childhood diabetes.

A woman’s life was saved by Baltimore Ravens defensive end Mark Andrews on a Southwest Airlines flight to Phoenix on Thursday.

A man on the flight told X that a woman had a medical emergency in the middle of the flight, and Andrews jumped in to help the nurse and doctor take care of her.

The passenger said the woman’s blood pressure was very low and the doctor and nurse couldn’t find a strong pulse on her. The man said it was “truly scary” because the woman requires oxygen to breathe.

A nurse and a doctor on board the flight checked on the woman but did not detect a strong pulse. Springs says the woman needed oxygen to breathe and her blood pressure was also low.

Andrews then stepped into the room and asked if she might be having a problem with her blood sugar.

Springs says that Andrews, who suffers from Type 1 diabetes, then gave the doctors his diabetic test kit and showed them how to use it.

“Andrews got off the plane quietly. “No fuss,” Springs said on X. “Just like he has done all his life, he stepped up when other individuals needed him the most. It’s truly amazing to see strangers jump into action to save someone’s life.

Through the Baltimore Ravens, Andrews said in a statement, “The real heroes have been the nurse as well as the doctor who were also on the plane, along with the quick-thinking flight attendants.” Thank goodness that they were ready to help the woman right away.

It was Andrews’s sixth season in the NFL, but Baltimore lost to the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Championship Game. He is 28 years old.

The Ravens say Andrews wears a glucose meter throughout games and checks it every time the offense comes out.

Andrews also had a close call with death while he was in college. Andrews was found unconscious by his roommate as well as teammate Wesley Horky when he was just a freshman at Oklahoma. He had hypoglycemia, which means he had low blood sugar.

But Horky assisted in saving Andrews’ life by putting fruit chews in his teeth before the hospital staff arrived.

Baltimore Ravens defensive back Mark Andrews saved the life of a Southwest Airlines passenger by helping several people do so.

“A man in an adjacent seat asked, ‘Could it become her blood sugar?'” I have a kit for testing for diabetes. TE Mark Andrews of the Ravens did it.

Andrews, 28, acted quickly when he saw her having a “genuinely scary” medical emergency on Thursday while he was en route from Baltimore with Phoenix in the morning.

“The doctor and nurse who were taking care of her couldn’t find a strong pulse. Her blood pressure was very low, and she needed oxygen to breathe.” “It was really scary,” fellow rider Andrew Springs wrote on X in a series of tweets.
