Re: Awake
by lightsandsirens
The kids are the ones that get you. On arrival to a scene to a call for a hanging I find a very distraught young girl who was having trouble breathing. I thought thank god, it's not a DOA. Turned out she wasn't our patient, and it was a DOA. She had just discovered her father hanging from the back shed rafters and was distressed to the point that I thought she had just survived a hanging attempt and had possibly compromised her airway. You don't forget that in a hurry.
