About Me:
Started in the business late compared to most people I know. I am a little bit different than most people I know. I work in EMS because it is what I want to do, not because of the paycheck or anything else. I know it where I belong. I also am also kind of geeky. I love to do research. I want to know all the why's and the wherefore's.

Married
Why I Joined Fire/EMS
Because I never want to feel or be helpless in case of an emergency. A friend inspired me to come work with her as a NET driver. The company we were working for had an EMS side of things. The people I met there really helped me along this road.
Why I Love Fire/EMS
I get to make a difference in a positive way if at all possible.

Sleep Deprivation; Staying Healthy; Substance Use and Abuse; Spouses and Family members that really don't understand.

Hey B, thanks for the compliment on the pics. All you have to do to get started is click on HOME. There is a link/button on the homepage that will allow you to download pics. After you get 1 downloaded, then you can do it off your page. The "slideshow" works automatically. Stay safe.

Yes everything is good here so far. They are talking about Hanna hitting Charleston or Myrtle Beach but a change in a few degrees would bring it here to Savannah. No one knows what it will bring yet. We are alert but no evacuations yet. Hope all is well with you. Stay safe!

I started when I was 39 also. I am getting ready to go to Paramedic school soon. Good luck on your new journey. It is exciting to know that we can still make a difference at our age.
