I have a pretty open mind and I enjoy learning from others (even if it is that albertan squint)
I became a emt because on the day my brother in law died in my lap there was no ambulance in our community. In hind site he still would have died reguardless but it was decided by my paramedic friends that I would make a good medic and then they went and made sure I have babysitting ect for the course that I had to attend and here I am.
Now 14 years later I am still learning and come to this site everyday so that I can find new information, see what everyone is up to and have a quick argument if there is time. This week I need info about pallative and hospice care (thanks mother those links are great) and to those I asked thanks. One thing I do find here is not matter who you are (cranky, snotty, mean or any other bad chartactistics) if you come here for some help it will be provided to you.
I think we all have good and bad in us and as I say to my boys You will never like everyone and the ones you dont you suck it up or walk away.
