  1. Talking about a meet-up again? well if this one pulls through I might be able to go, although it varies depending on what mother thinks (yes I know it's sad that I need my mothers permission when I'm 20 years old and I'm an EMT) and on if I have school then, but heck I'd love to go and get hit on by Jess... I mean meet Jess and everyone else :D

  2. when will teens learn that WE ARE NOT INVINCIBLE? it's a sad truth, I learned this when my classmate died. How many more must die before this is changed? I mean come on, Wisconsin will just slap ya on the wrist for not wearing your seat belt ($10 fine, but as far as I know it isn't a moving violation) it may have changed, but I don't recall hearing anything. We can only hope that people will wise up about it.

  3. so does this mean that i actually have to actually need to have a real emergency if i'm in, i don't know, saaaayyy... indianapolis and jeni or wendy are working in the back of an ambulance, or if i'd go to pennsylvania by where gracey lives, or down in MO where k8 and cntry live, or in georgia where jrenee works? suck, lol. oh well

  4. ummm, how about this, a while back i was on call doing work experiance down at the squad building, when tones dropped, turned out it was for a heart attack, so we had 2 students and one EMT-IT (I-85) in back. me and the other student had our training permits so we could care for the patient as long as we had a preceptor. anyway, lets just say it was a perfect text book code. we got there, did CPR, got a combi-tube in him, had shocked him with the defib, and en-route to the hospital, we had restarted his heart, so when we intercepted with the paramedics, we just had to switch over to there ventilator machine thing. we had a line started on him and stuff, so once we got the medics in our rig and we had someone to drive the medic's rig, we continued on to the hospital.

    fast forward about a month, our squad was having a little awards ceremony, i received an award from the patient i had helped save, him and his wife gave me a hug and said thank you. i was of course at a loss for words. but yeah, that was like the coolest thing for me.
