It's my life, as I see it. It's my opinions, my thoughts, and my experiences. The content has changed over the years as my live has changed. The 40 something EMT Wife and mother, is now a Wife and Search Technician with Search Dogs Sussex and as for the age? Does that even matter!

Hi Ho, hi ho its off to work we go..........
Back to work again, every work day morning I get dressed downstairs so I don't wake every one up at some unearthly hour, I go to put my boots on and the dog thinks she has one last chance for some fuss before I go, as I start doing my laces she puts her foot on it so I would tie her to it, then when that doesn't work she rolls onto her back on my feet, this dog does NOT want me to go to work!
Today it is raining and drab, our first call is to a lady who has been unconscious for 10 to 15 mins, on our arrival she has just come round, she is elderly, her blood pressure is low and her temperature and sugar levels are high, I explain to her husband that we will take her to the local hospital to get a check over, to which her replies "No, she's not going" she has been unconscious before they don't know whats wrong so she isn't going in!"
It took us a fair few minutes to explain that it wasn't just the unconsciousness but other things too that we were worried about. We did in the end take her in, she was allowed home by mid afternoon.
I have decided to do the paramedic course which begins early next year, I have to be accepted first, and received the application forms today, the hard part is filling them in!
What I don't like about this time of year is driving to work in the dark, then driving home again in the dark, it makes the day seem so short.
Still its all change tomorrow, as I begin my two night shifts......
