"All I can say is, thank you to the station 102 for sending out two incredible EMTs. Thank you to the 911 operator who kept both my fiancée and I calm during a hectic period."
Mateo was rushed to the emergency room and has thankfully made a full recovery, and Ryan took a moment in the clip to thank the doctors and nurses who did an "incredible job" in caring for the tot.
