A quick-acting South Jersey school nurse is credited with being a hero after stepping in and saving a little girl's life. According to 6 ABC, it was just another normal school day at Kresson Elementry School in Voorhees for 9-year-old Kiera Edel. A routine physical by the school nurse Dorrie Uscinowicz would change both of their lives forever. The routine physical for Kiera revealed she had extremely high blood pressure which was life-threatening. That's when Uscinowicz sprang into action when realizing the little girl's needed immediate medical action. After testing, Kiera had to have one of her kidneys removed due to a cancerous tumor discovered by doctors at Children's Hospital in Philadelphia. She will have to undergo chemotherapy in the immediate future for 6 months to a year.
