911 and I have become friends

Sunday, July 08, 2012

well in the last 6 monthes I have dialed 911 six times...been 1st on scene 4 car accidents, one we had a pitbull in our yard and wouldn't let us out of the doorway ( poor thing had to be darted) MOM having her stroke and Friday my worse nightmare coming true...finding a dear friend on her bedroom floor shot herself in the heart, barely still alive...calling 911...knowning when they took her away I would never see her alive again...I think about her 2 kids she left behind...her family...the guilt of her ex husband (as of june29th) and what he going thru...YEP I'm glad we have 911, but I'm tired of dialing it...

    I have dialed 911 myself and I am the EMT.
But it is sometimes the only way to summon
help so I can do my job. Being 1st on scene
at a car accident is crucial but finding a friend
who wanted to end her life is awful. Do take
care of yourself and I am sure the operators
appreciate you taking the time to call. HUGS!

    Omigosh...you have been through so much in the past few months! I'm glad that you and your family are safe. Very sorry to hear about the tragic loss of your friend. I'm sure that, despite how hopeless she had become, your presence provided some comfort to her. Sending healing angels your way!

    It seems that you've been assigned the gatekeeper's role by the universe. It's a tough road, and I am so sorry that you've been called upon so often for this duty. What a sorrowful and sad discovery, that will be emblazoned in your memory. My heart goes out to you, with prayers for strength and wishes for happier times ahead.
