Harman said Tuesday that Cathy Dowdy, a family friend, has been in a coma since attempting to save Harman's 6-year-old son from a rip current

A few weeks ago, on Sunday, Oct. 13, Harman was in China, and his wife took their kids with family friend Cathy Dowdy to Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida, for some vacation time. Harman’s six-year-old son was boogie boarding with a friend when a rip current pulled him out, and that’s when Dowdy sprung into action.

Brian Harman asked for prayers for the woman who is now in a coma after helping to save his son from drowning.
