(CNN) Molly Pedrone doesn't remember crashing her white Kia Soul into a Boca Raton canal or being pulled from the sinking vehicle by bystanders who jumped in to save her. But she is grateful.

The 34-year-old was driving home after a work meeting on Sunday, thinking about doing some chores and having lunch when she had a seizure.

"Next thing I know I'm in the water sitting on the bank and someone is asking me if I recognize the picture she was holding," she told CNN. "It was my husband's senior picture, his parents had given it to us not long ago, but I couldn't understand why she had it."

Shawn Turner told CNN he was driving home with his sons when one of them saw the floating car, so they stopped to help. Several people were on the side of the canal and they had already called 911, he said.

"I just kicked off my sweatpants and dove in because you can't swim in sweats," he told CNN.
