I didn't get called for either of these but I know the people to whom they happened: 1. Young woman and her husband got a sex toy, it was a ring meant to go around his penis. He put it on and it was pretty awful - didn't fit right and stuff. So they took it off and she decided go with some...

86 -- Passed

Whew, glad someone said so before I had to. We never even touched on ECG when I was a basic, we just started it halfway through my Intermediate. NO intubation, only combi- and king- tubes. Can only start an IV once you get certified, post-EMT-B certification and as a B only a very few drugs...

For the first few weeks of my EMT-B class I kept a running log on a blog (thelittlestemt.blogspot.com) only I kind of forgot to keep updating and wound up giving up -- but if you want to take a peek at how I did it you can feel free. I never had a problem with anyone getting upset. If you...

In Colorado there are a ton of Search and Rescue groups. Your best bet is to volunteer with one for a year or two - if they know you have a certification you'll be used a lot for the medical side of things once they find the person in need of rescue. I'm applying for the SAR group down where I...

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,582557,00.html The newest update is that the woman died due to an asthma attack.

Oh I wish wish wish we had some. We have roughly 10,000 people in this town. Probably closer to 7,000 - I can't remember now. Point is that there are no uniform shops here. -.-; Blugh. That would've been a good idea, though, thank you for trying.

Irish -- I'm not coming in with nothing. I swim three times a week and I'm a black belt in tae kwon do, so I'm not going to fall apart. I was just wondering what exercises would be suggested for strengthening muscles that are the most important to the lifting I need to do. I would really, really...

Deadlift, Military Press, Bench Press, Squats. Got it. I'll see about putting some sort of regimen together in the next few days. Probably include a foot press...mostly because I can press over 200 pounds and it makes me feel hardcore. ;)

I see! I like it! Exclamation party! Lol. The amount of people who snicker when I eye the weight room is sort of pathetic lol. Most people can get their fingers to touch around my upper arm which is sort of embarrassing. The worst part is people who look at a 50lb bag I have to lift an...

Oh, I'm not supposed to try to catch it? :P I can't IMAGINE just...peering into an ambulance. I was amazed by my own boldness at such a distance that I wouldn't have seen more than some figures moving around. What sort of person just has the nerve to stroll up to an ambulance and be like "Oh...

This is becoming frustrating. You had an eating disorder. I get it. I know it's devastating, embarrassing, and many girls don't even want to admit to themselves that something is wrong - some don't even realize something is wrong. I had a friend in high school who nearly died in middle school...

Yes, thank you, I'm well aware. That doesn't mean I like being trapped for two hours when I've already stated that I don't have one. Being skinny doesn't mean I have an eating disorder and the fact that I just realized I always feel the need to qualify my weight with "but I eat!" sort of...

No, Clinical ride-alongs aren't for another month. Bah. And like I said, I pulled into a parking lot and parked, so I wasn't creating any danger, I was just eager to get a look at what I'd be involved in soon. I really can't wait to get started lol. I'm such a dork.

Lol yeah it was just happenstance that I was there, I didn't follow the ambulance I just pulled into the nearby parking lot. I really wish I'd been able to see, I was eager to see what it looks like when a real EMT team pulls the stretcher out and heads in 'cause I suspect it doesn't exactly...
