Get well soon brother.
Was very surprised that this happened. From what my son tells me this firefighter/paramedic is up for paramedic of the year at LAFD. From all accounts a really good guy. Lousy station assignment in that neck of the woods that much I can say living out here. Son also says he was DC'd from hospital yesterday and is resting at home. Get well.
