Saturday Day Drunks
Well around 18:30 hours the pager went off for an accident with injuries in Halifax Township, with a motorcycle versus a car. Me and my father got in 13-1 and off we went. We got on the scene at the same time as Engine 29-1. The guy on the motorcycle was complaining of pain in his head. He did not have a helmet on. Medic 6 showed up and then we took him down to Hershey Hospital where for the second day in a row, we took him into one of the trauma rooms with the trauma team. After we got what we needed down there we headed on home. The medic was picked up at our station and me and my father restocked and logged our times in. After that we headed on home. We got home around 21:00 hours and I got a snack and finished up a few things on the computer. I went to bed around 02:00 hours and about 20 minutes later was rocked out of bed when the pager went off for chest pains in Wayne Township. Both me and my father got out of bed and got changed and got in 13-1 and off we went. We got there, followed by Medic 6 and then we took her on down to Osteo Hospital. After we got what we needed down there, we headed on home. We dropped the meidc off at Sheetz and then stopped and got disiel and then headed back to the "Barn". We dropped the unit off, logged our times in and then we headed on home. We got home around 04:45 horus and I got to bed around 05:00 hours. I was rocked out of bed around 08:08 hours when the pager went off for an unconscious person in Wayne Township. Dohn and Carol were on by that time, but I got up anyway, got dressed and headed on up to the fire house for the Chicken BBQ today. I got up there and spent the whole morning up there helping out with that. Around 11:15 hours the pager went off for an accident with injuriers in Reed Township at the Clarks Ferry Bridge. Dohn and Carol went responding. For the third day in a row now we have taken someone to Hershey and into the trauma room with the trauma team. I left the fire house around 12:30 hours and headed on home. Once home I ate mu chicken, then took a shower and headed into town. I went to Giant and picked up a gallon of milk and then headed back to the shed to do my paperwork from my two calls. Dohn and Carol showed up soon after I got there and we talked for a little bit and then they headed home. Bill then showed up and he helped me clean up the backboard from the motorcycle guy. We had to use the pressure washer on the two straps to clean the blood off of them. After that I hung the two straps up outside to dry off and ran a backboard up to Millersburg Ambulance. On my way back through, I stopped and checked on the straps. They were dry so I took them back to the office and then I picked up my milk and headed on home. I am getting ready to eat dinner soon, and then I am going into the "Barn" to help Sue with her tripsheet from Friday night's accident. After that I will be back on the internet, checking my email and surfing the net. Will be on late tongiht so give a buzz if you want to talk.
