Wow - Excellent job with doing this from Ronon's POV. :) You did a really good job on describing the effort it takes to do CPR. And, you will break ribs if you do CPR right.
Just an FYI - the CPR ratios have changed. It's now 30 compressions to 2 breaths. This I learned last summer when having to get my certification for massage. :p (The lady doing the narration on the American Heart Assn video was just too chipper and we wanted to kill her by the time we were done because we had to keep doing CPR on the dummies....)
But yeah, your arms feel like mush after wards when the adrenaline wears off - much like I'm sure Ronon was feeling and not wanting to admit. :)
