A Busy Two Days

Went to bed Thursday Night around 02:00 hours and was rocked out of bed at I believe it was 08:30 hours when the pager wenr off for a sick person in Halifax Borough. I got out of bed and got dressed and got in my car and headed into the "Barn". I got there and parked and went inside and pulled 13-2 out awhile. Dohn pulled up and got in the passenger's seat and said to go. We got up to Boyer's Apartments and went inside and got the lady loaded up in the ambulance. Dohn then got in the back and said that we were going to Osteo. I asked him if he was sure that I could drive. He said it was a class 3 call. I told him I did not want to get into trouble. He asked me how I would get in trouble. I said ok and then got in and drove down to Osteo. After we got what we needed, we started on back. We had just left Osteo, when county called us. They asked us if we could handle a call in the city for a sick person. We told them that we could. We went responding and Medic 1-7 said that he would meet us on the scene. We got as far as 17th Street, when a 456 unit said that they were closer. Medic 1-7 placed us in service with his thanks and we went available. Meanwhile, while we were heading to that call, we got his for a fainting in Halifax Township. Alf, Kim, and Carol handeled that call and went to Harrisburg Hospital. We got back up to the shed, and Dohn ran their van up to Engle's and I followed him up in the unit and then we headed back to the shed. While I was sitting at Engle's waiting for Dohn, I heard County calling 13-1. I called down to County and Jeff Enders was working EMS. I told him that they were still inside Harrisburg Hospital probally. He told me that he was trying to get ahold of them to take a call in Susquehanna Township. They ended up getting South Central to handle it. We had just pulled in when the pager went off for a sick person in Millersburg Borough. I told Dohn that we had to switch drivers since it was a class 1 call. After it was dispatched he told me to just go, so I went. We got up there and Medic 6 was already there and Flipper said it was an ALS Pt. and they he figured they would handle it, that way we weren't tying up two units on one call. So we went available. As we were clearing from that call, County called 13-1 and asked them there location. They said that they were on 22/322. County then asked them if they could handle a tramatic injury call in Middle Paxton Township. They went responding. It was a construction accident, where a man had been ejected from his frok lift and was thrown 20 feet and hit his head off of a stone and a log. They had Life Team as their medic. Meanwhile, me and Dohn went back to the shed. I logged my times in and Dohn did the paperwork from the call. I sat there unti; he was done, that way we were both at the station incase we got another call. I then left and went to Giant and picked up a bag of chips for my father and then headed on home. Once at home I ate lunch and started to read the paper. I had just finished eating lunch, when the pager went off for seizures at the Clarks Ferry Truck Stop in Reed Township. I got my boots on and got in my car and headed to Dohn's house. I got there and parked my car and Dohn was sitting in the passenger seat. I got in and off we went. We got as far as the bible church when Perry County placed us in service. We turned in at the station to turn around and 13-1 had just pulled in, in front of us. Me and Dohn stopped to see if they needed any help cleaning up the back of the unit. We helped them do a few things and then we left and headed back out to Dohn's house. Once there, I got my car and headed on home. Once at home I went back to reading the paper. I finished reading the paper and watched the end of Dr. Phil. I then emptied trash cans and then went back to my bedroom to open my check up. I had just sat down in my chair, when the pager went off for chest pains in Halifax Township at Giant. I got back in my car and headed back out to Dohn's house. I parked my car and got back in 13-2 and off we went. We got there and Alf showed up also. We got the guy loaded up and I drove on down to Hershey Hospital. Alf went along with us, along with Medic 6. After we got what we needed down there, we headed on back. We dropped the medic and Alf off at Giant and then we headed back out to Dohn's house. Once there, I got my car and headed on home. Once at home I changed into street clothes and took the trash out and then left to head up to Millersburg. I stopped at the fire station and grabbed my gear and then continued on up to the Casey's house. I got up there and Bill was already there. I had just got there, when another car pulled up. House said it was his dad. I was a little confused by that statment (still kind of am). So I went out into the kitchen to get a cup and get my bottle of sprite and some ice, when his dad came in, along with two other people. Here it was Keith Pottiger, Sami, and Tim. We all sat and talked while Bill ordered the pizza. We then continued to talk while we waited for the pizza. Once the pizza got there, we started to play Phase 10. We had finished about either 2 or 3 rounds, when Keith asked House to make a beer run. House ran down to the Millersburger abd picked up a 12 pack of Coors Light and brought it back to the house. I had one beer and then I was done since I had to drive home, and I was working today. We finished Phase 10, and then Keith ran back down to his house to pick up Cody to bring back up. We waited from them to get back. So we sat and talked and then went outside and sat on the porch. It was raining out, but the breeze felt good. Once Keith got back, Bill decided to get going since his knee was bothering him. We then played Uno Attack. I left after 01:00 hours and headed on home. I stopped at the fire house and dropped my gear off and then continued on home. Once at home I took a shower and then crashed in bed as I was tired.

I went to bed around 03:00 hours last night and was rocked out of bed around 08:45 hours when the pager went off for breathing problems in Jackson Township. I got out of bed and got dressed and then got in my car and headed into the "Barn". I got there and Carol was already there and had 13-2 pulled out awhile. I parked my car and got in and off we went. We got there and got the lady loaded up and placed Medic 6 in service and then headed on down to Holy Spirit Hospital. After we got what we needed, we headed on back. I stopped at Shell and got fuel and then went back to the shed. Once there, I logged my time in and then did the paperwork from the call. After I was done I headed on home. Once at home I ate lunch and read the paper. I then went back into my room and started scanning some pictures, when the pager went off at 13:47 hours for a fall victim in Halifax Borough at the Borough Park. I got my boots on and then got in my car and headed to Carol's house. I got there and parked my car and got in and off we went. I called county and had them place Life Lion on stand-by awhile. We got there and Dohn and Suzy were already there. Alf and Charlie followed soon behind. We got the kid boarded and I called for Life Lion. We got him in the ambulance and Stepler went to work on him. We made the LZ at the high school. We got there and transferred the kid over to Life Lion. After that we dropped Stepler back at his squad and then headed back to the shed. Once there we cleaned the unit up and then I was run back out to Carol's house. Once there, I picked up my car and headed to Sheetz and got gas and something to drink. I then headed back to the shed. Once there I logged my time in and did the paperwork from the call. After I was done, I headed on home. Once at home I ate dinner and am now getting ready to hit the old email and surf the net. I will be on late tonight so if any sexy ladies want to talk to me, just give me a buzz.
