Nanny Risks Life, Saves Boy, 5, From Fire
This hero has no health insurance.



After waking to a loud boom and realizing smoke detectors were going off in the Shelbyville home where she worked as a nanny early Tuesday morning, all she knew was she had to get to the 5-year-old boy she cared for.

And she did, after walking barefoot through a flaming hallway and carrying the boy to safety from the house on Goldenrod Court. “I didn't even think about me getting burned,” Myatt said. “I care for the kid a lot. I really do.”
