I received a call this morning about the loss of a longtime EMT in our county. Rod had many trials in life including a heart transplant which he was one of the longest living transplant patients in Iowa, plus with in last couple years kidney failure. He fought the fight well. He maintained all his certifications required as an EMT until a couple years ago when his health took a downward spiral. Unfortunately the H1N1 found him and when diagnosed he told his wife, we will fight this fight just as he had all the others, and he did, he had recovered from the H1N1, but other weakened organs in his body failed and he succomed this morning. God's speed Rod.

That is so sad to hear. My heart goes out to his friends and family. I know how difficult it canbe...our family recently lost my cousin who was a law enforcement officer. He was headed home after shift and was killed in a head-on crash. They are gone, but not forgotten...
