Yah been off for five years. waiting for a double lung transplant right now. Once that happens, I am hoping to get back into the service and do SOMETHING. Lots of things I can do, but my days of actually putting out fires is done. Just want to get back into it tho.

Brian,
are you off duty now and for what if I may ask?

Thanks Dave. I was not sure what it was.
Are you presently using one and working back on duty? Curious is all, cuz I know that I would love to get back into the service, doing whatever I can. I know what I CAN do and I know what I certainly CAN NOT do. Sadly, many have considered the CAN NOT do, and discounted the CAN DO. Tough battle to convince people that its ABILITY more than DISABILITY sometimes..
If you are in the similar situation, I wish you good luck in your efforts. Keep me posted if you wish.
