Born and raised in Northern Ontario I worked as a paramedic for 37 years . The job was always a challenge but I enjoyed working with the people and doing all I could for the patient. Gradually over time the system became overloaded. Hospitals began to lose ground as all problems were taken to them. Tweaking the system helped for a while but the problems kept emerging. Lining up in hospital hallways waiting to unload my patients was some of the most difficult times. Not able to get patients the help they needed and unable to answer 911 calls. That is when I discovered writing to be a great stress reliever. I presented many ideas to management and many have been implemented. Maybe with any luck this book will be another.
