A LORRY driver who was brought back to life after a heart attack was today meeting the two paramedics who saved him.

Desmond Barlow, aged 49, suffered a massive coronary while working at Christian Salverson, off Warrington Road, in Leigh.

But while he was on his way to the Royal Bolton Hospital, Mr Barlow, who lives in Wigan, 'died' but he was quickly revived by paramedics Mike Bindon and Arthur Morris.

He was due at Wigan Ambulance Station today to present the pair with crystal tankards bearing the names of his life-savers.
