Did you Receive Appropriate Care at your Hospital?

That was a real blessing! 

I had a similar thing when I had my first serious AD incident.  One of the paramedics was a young man whom I befriended years before when he was in a very painful family environment.  I invited him kayaking with club I belonged to, and the guys reached out to him and built him up.  We remained friends as he went through high school, and he would stop by to "help me"--and he really did, before I was paralyzed, with yard work and some home repairs--but really wanted to talk through some of his issues.  Really good kid, so I invested time and energy.  Saw that he did very well with tight structure, so I suggested military enlistment to gain education and positive life experience.  He became a Marine, and I was as proud as his parents were!  He served for several tours in a medical capacity (nurse, I think), and then decided not to make it a career.  His work as a volunteer paramedic is on top of his full-time employment.  He saved my life that night, and then went back to my house and took my Lorenz (service dog) to the kennel.  Lorenz also helped save me, by bringing my phone to me (it was even plugged into charger and he got it off) and opening it between our two mouths, then bringing me pencil so I could hold it in my teeth and dial 911.  What a night...hospital staff was great also, both emergency care and nursing.  My AD was caused by a violent norovirus that kept me in hospital for almost a week until I was stable.
