I was working at the fire department last night, and we got called out to what appeared to be a normal run of the mill assualt call. Got there and the patient had a blood pressure of 90/p. So I started an IV on the guy. Well, I started my first 14g angio on a patent. It was great, like sticking the alaska pipeline into his left arm. Woo hoo All was great, except for he pissed on me…

My hubby was an EMT for more than 20yrs, and is now a medical skills instructor. The stories we could tell you!! :eek:
You sing in my consciousness like a counterpoint to my life.

Well, If I am in close enough proximity to stick a needle into the guys arm, and he decides to take a leak (he went unresponsive, so emptying of the bladder is normal at that point) and I found myself kneeling in a pool of urine
WOW!! That is amazing kinoons, did he regain consciousness enough to realize what ya’ll had done for him???
Congratulations, and from all of us who have ever had to call 911, we usually DO appreciate the quick responses even if we are inconsiderate clods and don’t tell you at the time!!
