Paramedic proposes to the woman he helped save after domestic violence attack
Melissa’s ex-boyfriend attacked her, and Cameron helped her in her recovery.
BACK IN 2012, an ambulance was called to the scene of a brutal attack in the US.
The first paramedic there was Cameron Hill, and his job was to try and save the life of Melissa Dohme. Melissa was lying in a pool of blood after being attacked by an ex-boyfriend.
Over three years later, they are now engaged to be married – and their story is capturing the heart of the internet
Once Melissa had started her recovery, Cameron and another paramedic visited her to see how she was getting on.
As she told The Tampa Bay Times, ”I had this feeling about him.”
The two started dating and have been together ever since.
She went on to say about her attack: ”When I look back on that night, I can’t think of it as all bad anymore because I met Cameron.”
Melissa’s recovery became so inspirational that it was well known in her local area. So much so that she was the guest of the Tampa Bay’s baseball earlier this week.
And that’s where Cameron decided to pop the question
It was a fairytale ending
We actually need a tissue.
