Oh, there you are!

01 January 2011

The quiet before the storm.

One more sleep before NYE.

But on this night we did,

36M - A mental health pt who felt good and dropped of his meds a few weeks ago and it's all unravelling now. Good for him he knew it and popped into a cop shop and requested help, enter us.

41F - Traumatic cardiac arrest, exsanguination, the heart doesn't pump air. Didn't appear to be any criminal activity it was a burst abscess over an artery.
Nearly seven years since I last did a job as bloody, needed a full uniform change.

23M - Just sleeping in a doorway, as you do and some good Samaritan woke him up and called us. Why? we don't know but in my book if you're that desperate to be the Good Samaritan you should also be prepared to take them home with you and offer them your bed.

23M - Not going out NYE, he decided to hang one on tonight. Could not scratch himself. Double anti emetics and most of a bag of fluids by the time he was poured onto the hospital bed.

See you at the big One.
