A firefighter/paramedic with nearly 40 years experience, I tell the reader from a perspective that has rarely been revealed before; what it's really like to be in emergency medical services. I talk about personal experiences which describes the internal fears, heart-stoping moments and the gut-wrenching emotions that as a paramedic, often risk my life so others may live, I often faced it on a daily basis. My story tells what it is like to work for variety of ambulances in a busy, mostly metropolitan cities; while working in a dual-function capacity as a firefighter / paramedic /vol. deputy sheriff / EMS professor working in either a ambulance, emergency squad, classroom, emergency room, critical care unit or a fire engine.
