    Due to a terrible accident, we almost lost our son 25 years ago. As an important part of his therapy, he continued his EMT education he had started as a volunteer fire fighter before the accident. He wanted to volunteer at 9-11, but wasn't fit for it. During all these years, he has maintained his EMT and Phlobotomy licences, and resumed his life as a part time EMT day before yesterday at a Covid Testing/Vacination site! My chest is bulging with pride, and you can imagine his pride of accomplishment as well!

    I always love to hear stories like this. Reminds me of how short life could be, and the challenges folks can overcome. From a father of three adult children it's a great feeling to be proud of them! :) I hope your son stays safe while working to help others.
