(CBS)_A Northern California mail carrier is being hailed a hero after she saved the life of a woman on her route.
U.S. Postal worker, Karen Haley, has been working her Grass Valley, California route for 14 years. She knows and is friendly with everyone she delivers mail to.
Recently, while on her route, Haley's job evolved into a guardian angel. Pat Gee, a 74-year old woman Haley greets every day, was not up and about like usual. There were newspapers still on her porch.
Haley approached her home, called out to her with no answer. Haley says Gee was on her couch and didn't respond. Haley called for help.
Gee is battling pneumonia and is reliant on an oxygen machine. That day she was suffering from congestive heart failure. Gee's doctor says if Haley didn't come to her aid when she did, Gee would have died.

Karen is my co-worker at the Grass Valley Post Office. She is a very special angel and we all love her. This is her second time saving a person in the same place she delivers mail. Sincerely, Elle Lynch
How sweet. See this is why people need to be aware of their surroundings. Thank God for Haley knowing her customers on her regular route and knowing something wasn't right and checking into it. Haley, you are really an Angel weather you believe it or not you are a hero.
