I just got done talking to a lady I responded to who had had a major heart attack. She was purple, unresponsive, and severly critical. Immediate CPR and AED. 4.....FOUR......did I mention 4 AED treatments (shocks) later we were in the ambulance, 2 more times I hit her with the AED in route. Medic was pushing meds, you guys know the drill. She arrived in critical condition at the ER, full vent, 25% chance of pulling through. That was 3 weeks ago, and tonight she contacted me. She is home and on her way to a full recovery. :cool10: Their really are not words to describe this feeling. She opened the conversation with "hi, this is *******, I hear that because of you I am alive" Understand I respond as a volunteer responder, paid for my own med training as an emt, and we DO NOT have an ambulance in our town. For 12-15 minutes it was her, me and 2 other responders following my lead. Im on cloud nine right now. Not tooting my horn, but Im the only one awake right now at my house so you guys/gals get to hear me rant....... Ive been doing this for years now, but it never gets old..............OK Im done
