I read this was sickened by it. How could anyone is my line of work think this was okay? Not only was he violating all kinds of HIPPA laws, but that poor family. Now, I know I blog about my experiences as a paramedic. But I like to think I keep it light, I want people to understand that I love what I do, even when I'm up to my eyes in alligators, I still enjoy the little world I live in.

Now...

I have a real paying gig. The Derby team that I have been working with (pro bono, portfolio work) is having me shoot during thier promo night out. This little Medic is excited.

I had a friend of mine demand I post, I told her I have about 7 unfinished posted saved, So I'm gonna try and finish this one becuase it's been quite a while since I've posted. School has kept me quite busy. Im living on Starbucks and very little sleep. But I creating some of the best work I have in a long time. I forgot what it was like to truley love photography and taking photos. Along with working, I have hooked up with the local Roller derby team and have become thier photographer. They have taught me alot, not just about photography, but about being part of a team. And it's a great release and change from the work on the ambulance.

I also got a phone call from my cyclist yesterday, he is doing well and it was good to hear from him. He is speaking to group of graduating class of paramedics today and needed me to fill in some missing gaps from his accident. He is my reason I put on my uniform every shift and to be honest, that phone call came at a good time. I needed that reminder right now.

So this was just a quick post, just to let everyone know I'm still around, I'm still on the ambulance. School is keeping me busy (I made Dean's List too!) I'll try and do better about posting.
