Cool. What do you know? I'm an EMT-P (a girl who formerly rode on ambulances). So I remember about the heart attack calls. Isn't it interesting how people are always being brought back to life on TV dramas involving paramedics and emergency rooms, but in reality they don't have nearly as high a survival rate? I haven't worked for the fire dept in 18 years. But I've kept my medic certification current just for fun and have volunteered a good bit over the years.

I'm starting actual medical school in about three weeks. So I'm going to get some cool new certifications eventually. I think I may be interested in emergency medicine as a speciality, in fact. It'll be neat to go in already having a good bit of practical knowledge about first aid and medicine. I can easily surpass my husband now when it comes to stopping bleeding or dressing wounds.

Keep up the good work, and keep spreading the word for people to move to the right for sirens and lights!
