JAKARTA - Daniel Vallaire, a resident of Fort Lauderdale, USA, suffered a life-threatening stroke last year. Luckily Siri from Apple finally provided help that saved his life.

Just days before his 70th birthday, Vallaire collapsed in his bathroom. He spent the next 48 hours crawling "slight by little" from the bathroom to the living room to try to find help. At that time, he felt confused, had no energy, and eventually developed severe dehydration.

Vallaire was unable to reach the phone or make a call, so he shouted asking Siri to call his daughter, Victoria. Siri made the call, and his daughter immediately contacted the emergency team in 10 minutes.

"I said, 'Siri, call Victoria Vallaire,' and Siri did," Vallaire told the local news station. "If I had a home call, there was no way I could have achieved it." He added that if it weren't for Siri, he "wouldn't be here."

After the emergency team rescued him, the hospital found that he had a stroke caused by an infection in his two aorta valves. Vallaire was finally able to reunite with the medical team who saved his life earlier this month. He expressed his gratitude for avoiding death and suggested that others be "more aware" of their heart health.

Siri and other Apple security features such as Crash Detection, Fall Detection, and Emergency SOS have been responsible for saving many lives. Siri is available on all Apple devices, including iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, Vision Pro, HomePod, and Apple TV.
