8/5 (Yarmouth) An eight-year-old girl who nearly drowned in a West Yarmouth motel pool last weekend has made a full recovery



August 5, 2011 (YARMOUTH) An eight-year-old girl who nearly drowned in a West Yarmouth motel pool last weekend has made a full recovery.           

Yarmouth police say they’ve been contacted by the girl’s family – who says Victoria is home and in perfect health.           

The young girl ran into trouble while swimming in the Town and Country Motor Lodge pool last Sunday.           

Kerry Kiefer – a cardiac therapist vacationing from Worcester – was nearby and jumped in to perform CPR.           

Kiefer was able to revive the girl and Yarmouth rescue crews rushed the young swimmer to Cape Cod Hospital.           

Yarmouth police credit Keifer with helping save the girl’s life.
