Aydhun Byars has got a superpower love.

Last week, the 5-year-old Aurora, Colorado, boy saved his mother's life when he called 9-1-1 for help after his mom wouldn't open her eyes or respond to him.

Aydhun's mother Tarah Gunderlock had gone into diabetic shock and would have died had it not been for her son's instinct to act.

"He's my little superhero and he makes me really, really happy," Tarah Gunderlock, the boys mother, told 7NEWS. "I told him 'you used your superpower,' and he told me 'my superpower is love.'"
