Thanks Everyone, I was really having a ****ty day myself until I logged on and started reading this thread, I am laughing so hard I have the tears rolling. I know first hand how hard it is to live something down. I am still hearing about the body I dropped. It has been over a year since that...

Thank You Chimpie, I have collected a few numbers to call for other organizations and never thought to call the Red Cross, big duh on my part! My Father is in this mess right now, he isn't in New Orleans yet he is still working his way thru MS but on his way there and he said it is just heart...

I don't have any pictures but a few of us at the station are willing to go and help the victims and don't know who to contact about doing it. We looked at the FEMA site and it was no help at all, anyone know who to contact, we are in TN and we could probably get a chopper to go along with us...

we get calls that the pt's are having difficulty breathing and they are blue, we get there and find them with a NRB with O2 @4lt :huh: ........gotta love those calls, take off the NRB and they start turning pink again....imagine that? :blink:

Is the company National Events Services? If it is let me know we need to talk.......

There was one like that in the tiny town I grew up in. It was called a folk festival, yet we all knew it was just an excuse for hippies to use the latest and greatest drugs. They would find dead bodies for weeks in the lake, streams, and forests surrounding the private land it was held on. The...

It was a trip I will never forget :P It still amazes me at how many different drugs a person can do at one time and still live to tell about it. Those people were absolutely INSANE :blink:

Hey All, Its been a long time since I have been in and posted, time just gets away from you when all you do is work! I was wondering if anyone worked the Bonnaroo music (drug) fest in Manchester, TN. I did and what a wild time. I saw things that I had only heard of and somethings that I had...

Hey all, I haven't been in in a while. You all know how it goes too much work not enough free time, makes for great paychecks though! I just wanted to comment on the truck check off. @ my service it has to be done EVERYDAY on EVERY truck even if you ran out of the truck the previous shift and...

Everyone is back to work now. Only one is still on lift restriction. It has been fun though because we have been running 3 on a truck to help him out and we have had a ball. It makes a difference with that 3rd person. The pts have been told they are just so special that there were 3 of us sent...

I asked the same thing and the two in front were but, the two in back were not one was in the captians chair and one on the bench. They were hurt worse in the back ofcourse, the driver was the one with the prior neck injury so it didn't help in that aspect but it did keep him from being thrown...

:o I haven't been here much in the last week. It was a week ago today that our service had one of our trucks taken out by a woman that pulled out in front of it. I know not surprising it happens all the time. The bad thing was that the truck had just went to pick up another ALS crew that had...

Ya'll are crazy :lol:

Wingnut, Thank you for the salute but i really don't deserve one! I just do the best I can and call for an ALS truck even when I know there isn't one :o I just tell my driver if i get in over my head that I need to be at the ER YESTERDAY, they just drive like H*ll and get us there. It is scary...

Well I met with the TBI tonight. It took about 2 1/2 hrs to answer all of their questions and to get my statement written and signed. It wasn't too bad just a bunch of mental straining to try to remember everything that took place back in Sept. I still remember most everything in general but the...
