Thoughts and experiences from the life of a volunteer street medic.
Got some rare feedback. The patient from Friday is still in a coma in ICU, with multiple Fractures (all over actually) and intracranial bleeds. But, she’s past the 72 hr window…so we’ll see. Modern medicine is amazing, but a prayer for her wouldn’t hurt either – Never does.

Okay, to all who keep asking…I've lived in Northern Virginia all of my life. Married, no kids, 2 dogs. I graduated from the University of Virginia in 1995 with a degree in astrophysics and I am now a Systems Engineer for the world’s largest defense contractor by day, volunteer Medic, and current Rescue Captain, nights and weekends. I’ve been a repairer of heavy equipment, bank teller, high school teacher, “Webmaster” when that title was cool, Staff scientist, co-founder of one startup, employee number 2 of another, patent holder of 3 patents, friend, and husband. In the fall, I enjoy hunting, camping and football, and consider myself a professional tailgater. I once stormed the field at a football game I didn’t even attend. I have a saxophone, and I’m trying, slowly, to learn to play. I’m just an overweight white guy, who loves to laugh, and tries to see the humor in every situation. I love life, and am continually amazed at what it brings next. I’m just hoping I can share some of the great things (good and bad) I have seen with those around me.
