Happiness

So since she had a D&C it would be possible that there was perferation of the wall, that may have been small at first. With the passing of time the perferation became larger as she became more active, or there was internal damage that wasn't detected in the original accident. Kind of like a piece of torn material that gets bigger over time. This is also going to be aggrivated by the ASA and Plavix. Both of those drugs can cause the black rash....

Ok I will admit I had a pretty good giggle on this one. So as I read the artical it actually reminded me of an observation my husband made while visiting our boys, its kind of opposite of the study. So as a mother I think my boys are handsome and that any girl would be lucky to have them. So a little back ground on them

#1 has always been the player type but is respectful (or so I think), he is not shy what so ever and has never had a problem with getting the girl..

#2 is the true middle child. He is a tall and really was the cutest of them all (notice I said cute not handsom). He is very shy and it takes him awhile to get the girl (he likes older ones so he told me)

#3 is the same as #1 but he can also be very shy around very beautiful girls, so more of a combination of the 2.

So the observation was this. When hubby and the boys were together he noticed that men would be very aggressive to #1 and #3. He thought at first that those two were doing something to encourage this behavior and it turned out that what was happening was when they were walking by a couple (girl and boy) or were at the dance club, the girls would turn and look at them. This would in turn upset the the boyfriend, which would inturn create the conflicts. Then what would happen is the middle one would end up being the negotiator so things didn't turn ugly. I just kind of found this interesting and wondered if other groups of men have this type of experience.........

Well there is also this senerio, if a seike goes into a bar (not the they do) and are wearing a ceremonial sword, you as a bartender are not allowed to make the leave it at the door so to speak.............................

If you are over 45 yrs old, you MUST take this Alzheimer's Test

OK did you guys read my #63 comment....................I do work the code at the scene but there is a time when they get transported. I follow the protocol and if I get 3 no shocks on my Defib then Im transporting it is the way it is. I have not started CPR on other calls and the coroner is called, because they meet another set of criteria. If I gave you the impression that I scoop and run I dont..............If I start my CPR/AED protocol I have to run it to the end, if I dont its at the house I stay and so you know Im transporting the dead guy anyways because we have no coroner here to do it for us.

No offense happiness, but that sounds very hero-complex of you.No offense taken, it isnt hero complex it is that I know in my community you take them to the ER. Now if I worked in a big city my views might change but who knows Why can't you do everything for the pt in their house? I do what I can again refer to #63 I have stayed on scene for lengthy time periods What can we do differently in the ER than you can do in the field? Well the most important thing I can not do in the field is give cardiac drugs and Im pretty sure the faster those are given the better the results. Am I correct on that assusmtion.

I believe there was also a very recently publish article, though I can't find it right now, that showed that familes actually preferred out-of-hospital termination. IIRC, the reasons given were time to be with the pt in their home, financial considerations, desire for/of the pt to die at home. If I get some time, I'll see if I can find it. If that is the case where ever they did the study right on, but come to my native community and you will not get the same results.

So lets throw this into the pot and have alittle stir. They have put all these public AED's in our bus stations etc...........It is a proven fact that if a person is shocked, the sooner the better the higher chance of survival to the ER. But by making it to the ER dosn't mean they are actually going to pull through because the If the heart is damaged for what ever reason the shock dosn't make it all better right, and alot of them die. Now dont get me wrong because when you have one person survive it is all worth it in the end.

Can you explain how Happiness?

As a matter of fact yes I can, it is all about respect to some country's traditions. If my country says that you will show your face while you are taking an oath to be a good, honest, new citizen, then do it, pretty simple. If I was to become a citizen of a Muslim country and they want me to cover my face, know what that's what I'm going to do.

The RCMP dress uniform is unique to Canada, and is known around the world by that uniform. I am proud of it and I want it to stay the way it is, there is nothing wrong with that. I am not going to a country and asking them to change something that make them unique.

To me personally this has nothing to do with religion.

Well having a piece of skin removed and some water spashed on a baby is completely different don't ya think

Good story and your right it isnt all about all the skills we have its about the compassion that we give.

wow, somme one got out of bed on the wrong side today.

Squint alway get out on that side of the bed

maybe we should have muslims wear a badge or patch so it denotes them being muslim

or better still maybe we could mark them, say with a tattoo that shows they are muslim

Becomming a canadian has nothing to with religion

then we could have them all live in the one area of the city so we could watch over them.............

Thats uncalled for

while i agree that the PC brigade have gone too far in some cases, isnt the whole idea of equality what you are asking for

a Seik wearing his head dress in uniform proves this point. the uniform is not MODERN DAY Canadian culture now is it?)

As a matter of fact yes it is Modern Day Canadian Culture, a good buddy just came out of Regina and is very proud of His RCMP uniform just the way it is.

^{Bored squint}

^{Topic one I agree that if you are taking an oath that your face should be seen while doing so.}

^{Topic two I dont agree with any culture changing the RCMP uniform. Now the running joke in the family right now is that my Haida son wants to join the RCMP so I am going to weave a traditional cedar hat and have it presented to him if he graduates. Im not thinking it will go well with upperups lol................}

I guess I should make myself clear on our protocol. This is a stay and play protocol if I appeared to say that I scoop and run that was not my intention. I do have the ability to not start, to stop and to carry on as long as I follow the criteria of the protocol. I have stayed on scene for 30 min or longer depending on what is happening with my patient, but I will admit that the pt that came back so to speak we got 3 no shocks and were able to get him to the hospital where he got the drugs needed, and so you know this particular pt was down for 40 mins.

It is a know fact that CPR is less effective in the back of a moving ambulance but I was trying to point out that, that fact was not going to be a deciding factor in my decission to transport. I dont know about others but I believe my life long passion of horse back riding and also being a commercial fisherman has given me an awsome scense of balance, and I also fit well between the stretcher and the bench seat, just my size i guess.

My years of experience is 16 years now but to be honest I only remember doing about 10 actual CPR calls there is probably more if I really thought about it.

Well I guess reguardless of any study about CPR in the back of an ambulance it is not going to make me stop performing it. Bad CPR is better than no CPR. To those who are saying it is of no benifit to start CPR so that you can feel like you did everything possible or that it creates a false sense of hope for the family members I call BS. First of all if I as a medic do not feel I have done everything I possibly could in the call then I am going to feel that I have failed and personally I dont like that feeling, and as for the false hope for the family I would rather the family think I did every thing for their loved one, and to give the family some credit they are probably very well aware the person will probably die.

The one and only time that I have seen a person be revived (he later died) it gave the family time to say good bye to the loved one, and to them it was important.

Wow you guys really went to task on this one, and all I thought was going to be said was "because we (as in men) just like it"

Don't worry Dwayne my husband has the same complaint when I make him watch my stash

what ever happened to the old fashioned vacume

So I have noticed one thing from the men in this forum all of the comment concerning the term GAY is towards gay men. Them kissing in public repulses me ect. them dressing as fairly repulses me. Now dont get me wrong I'm kinda on the side I dont want to see fat hairy assed men in fairy suits I want to see the "I will tap that" in fairy suits. Now my point NOT one guy in this forum seems to be grossed out or even commented with girl on girl. It has been very accepted in the straight world for a girl to do a girl and both sexes will watch that porn. So why is that? Only men need to answer that, Im pretty sure Crapmagnet and I are both pretty open minded on the subject since we are the only girly girls that have posted on the forum

Mardi Gras is not a gathering of individuals to send a message to the general public about equality and education of any preticular individualism.

It is an all out party.

Of course it is Mobe, its the message to the genera public about the equality and education of the individual Party and the freedom to be able to do that. The comment was more geared towards the lack of clothing at both events...............

found some of the comments interesting

http://www.bcas.ca/EN/main/careers.html Here is some information. The system has changed alot since I joined many moons ago. Salt spring island Im thinking is a part time station but not really to sure. Most new paramedics do try to go to the rual or isolated areas to get their foot in the door and then as they get more experience and senority in the ranks they transfer closer to where they eventually want to be.

I am lucky as I am high in the senority and I could work anywhere if I so choosed to do so, but it has taken alot of years to achive that. I would say you should have a 2-5 year plan before you take a position.

Maybe Asysin2leads will answer this thread as he is from outside BC and working on getting into BCAS.

Good luck

Happi

Well I have to say the following....................The gay pride parade is at times risque

Mardi Gras is at times risque......................... So whats the difference one is a bunch of half dressed men (gay or not some of those guys are to die for) so the girls are happy and the other is a bunch of half dressed women (that most women would switch sides for) so the boys are happy right ?

They are also replacing basket balls, volley balls and any other kind of ball with nerf balls. Watch out boys your balls are going to be replaced with nerf soon because what someone might get an eye injury LMAO some days I even make me laugh.............................

http://usnews.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2011/12/05/9229048-boy-9-suspended-for-reportedly-calling-teacher- cute

Do you think our society is getting retarded (oppps not suppose to use that word either this is just an example I dont use this word ) I do really try to as PC as I can but OMG this crap is getting out of hand. I cant keep up evey time I look there is something out there that has been done or said for ever and now its wrong.

For example above article. It wasn't that long ago when little boys had crushes on their teachers and brought them gifts etc. I remember my grade 10 teacher (As they say now I would tap that) was so handsome and awsome, and he knew of my crush but he delt with it very diplomaticly and all was fine, i certainly wasn't suspended.

is to poke my poker before I poke her,

Now say that fast 3 times

Now lets not forget the Apple dumpling gang .................I watch MASH every day luv it

Col. Potter RIP

Ya make an appointment with the eye guy and get a pair of glasses, they will come in handy more often than not

Hey I resemble that remark , but I will say that Squint caracter is the one to watch out for, And if I remember correctly that CrapMagnet was once a Canuck, but went to the dark side like all those star wars characters..........Welcome to our little city,
