| Message | I volunteer for a rural ambulance corps as a driver. I completely relate to us being a taxi service as most of our patients are elderly who have no one else to call when they panic or fall out of bed. Yet, in our very small town, it's nice to know we can be there for them. If I were transporting our patients in Boston, I would have blown up at them all by now too.  Well written, enticing stories! |

| Message | I love your blog, I am an EMT with a small rural ambulance service south of Pittsburgh, PA. Tonight when I read "Just an Ambulance Driver" it reminded me so much of a paramedic I worked with that told us our ambulances were yellow because we are the CABulance service. Definition: CABulance, when you must go to the hospital at 3:00 am for the heartburn you have had for a month. Good Luck and KEEP WRITING!! I live your life and I enjoy reading your tales. |

| Message | I really like your blog and, having just discovered it, have yet to read all of the posts. You currently have what I consider to be the greatest job on the face of the planet, that is, being a boston paramedic. I would have become an EMT-B or EMT-I by now if the minimum age was 16, but sadly I'm still waiting for the day when I can finally sign up for the boston ems EMT-B class. As of right now i'm just (and i say "just" only because I want to eventually be more than) a first responder, and red cross volunteer. That said, i've already gone through two full emt-b textbooks and have recently begun studying from the mosby EMT-P textbook. Thank you very much for doing what you do, and I hope to one day join the ranks of the true "Boston Finest." Feel free to email me if you have any advice relating to how I can best prepare for EMT-B school. Thankful, Ben Lewis |

| Message | hello ts, to be honest, i don't remember how i came to your site. i suspect i was absent mindedly clicking through a few german paramedic/emt blogs and one of them might have linked to yours - however, i don't regret having landed here. it's immensely interesting to read the perspective of a u.s. colleague ... and somehow it's soothing to read that your people don't seem to be any less stupid than ours when it comes to calling 911 ;-) anyways, i wish you all the best - hope you'll enjoy the job for a while to come and provide your readers with more funny and thoughtful insights on your work  greets from far far away europe from an austrian e.m.t |

| Message | I came across your blog while looking for a site to dispose of sharps. I have been reading for three hours now and am captivated by your material. Well written, great stories. I have always respected the EMT's and Paramedics as I know they are the first there to stabalize you if they can. I was in a serious accident in 1980 and if it weren't for the EMT's and Paramedics I would have bled to death. A month later the EMT's and Paramedics actually visited me in the hospital and brought baloons and flowers. I will never forget them. Thank you for everything you guys and gals do. |

| Message | I absolutely love your blog! You write gripping stuff. The glimpse into your world is fascinating. Sometimes I feel like I went along on your calls - so exciting. You really know how to make a reader feel "as if they have been there". Your work seems so real - you make a difference and alter the outcome sometimes. The issues you have to deal with has to be such a challenge at times. Thanks! |
