Elizabeth was unconscious for almost 20 minutes prior to the arrival of the deliver driver, who came to her aid after Aiden alerted him.
Speaking to BelfastLive after the incident, Elizabeth said: "It was such a shock to the system. When I came round, all I could see was the high-visibility vest so I automatically thought it was the paramedics to be honest."

She also revealed that her son had wrapped her in a blanket and got her a bucket in case she needed to throw up.
"Obviously I had said 'mummy doesn’t feel well', so he must have thought that meant I was going to be sick," she explained.
