We got toned out to drowning on a local lake 2 years ago. Well when i got there i found out it was my oldest brother we found him the next day in 40ft of water maybe 50 to 60ft from land. Its one of the worst things to deal with i know i hope i never have to go thru it again.

back to the spiders Heather... every time I crawled into an attic, whether it be an attic fire, checking for extension or whatever, I always knew that there was at least one giant female spider protecting her young... We're talking big spiders too. I know they are there... waiting for me... spiders suck and they have giant teeth... oh yea, they have an attitude as well, not a good thing if you don't particularly care for spiders... :D

It appears that a significantly large percentage of the posters are saying they are afraid of losing someone they know as a result of their actions. Sorry to sound cold, but it all comes down to your training. If you have done all you can and still have a bad outcome, it was just plainly meant to be. You need to trust and believe in your training, and for pete's sake get rid of the tunnel vision. If you are in doubt of your training, then you should be training more, until you know, when the…
It appears that a significantly large percentage of the posters are saying they are afraid of losing someone they know as a result of their actions. Sorry to sound cold, but it all comes down to your training. If you have done all you can and still have a bad outcome, it was just plainly meant to be. You need to trust and believe in your training, and for pete's sake get rid of the tunnel vision. If you are in doubt of your training, then you should be training more, until you know, when the time comes, that you did all you can do. It's going to suck, hell yes, but sometimes there is not a damn thing that you or anyone can or could have done. Myself, I have responded to family and friends for mva's and medicals. I am fortunate that all but one had an ok outcome. And for that "one", I know I did all that I could to the best of my ability and am ok with that.<br />
But really, come on, ..who isn't afraid of losing someone close at a call. If that's all you're afraid of, then, well...I don't know what to say<br />
We train to rescue people and property and to save lives and livelyhood. We can't save 'em all, relative's or not.<br />
<br />
I also like Kali's response. Although, "fuctionally illiterate stranger" might have been a little harsh, I agree with her point.<br />

My fear is being locked in a room with "Bubba" and he thinks I have a pretty mouth.
