Ambulance

in all situations.” These Civil War doctors applied their knowledge to everyday situations outside of the battlefield such as falling off a ladder or tripping and scraping your knee. One of the most important ideas that doctors acquired was the ambulance-to-ER system created by Letterman. This system was vital in establishing the lifesaving 911 systems that we have today (Boyd and Hicks 2013) (Sohn…

Growing up in the small town of Tappahannock, Virginia, I figure I learned to read and write just as most other kids would have. I have early memories of my mother and my father teaching me how to write my own name and how to read small sections of children’s books. I experienced a normal childhood for the most part, and learned how to read and write just as all the other young boys and girls in school, but I don’t feel I became literate until later on in my life. My father being a…

The police officer said they called an ambulance and it was gonna arrive soon to take him to the hospital. I couldn't stop crying. After a while the ambulance came and took him him away off to the hospital. I got in my car and followed the ambulance and went to the hospital. Once I got there I waited and then a doctor came and I asked him if I could see him and he said yes and I went to see him…

called us back to the room; she said that I needed to give blood samples to test my A1C. I had no idea about what was going to happen. The phone rang, it was the doctor. She said that I had to be at the hospital in one hour or they would send an ambulance. My mother packed our belongings as we both cried, I realized this frantic moment was the worst I have ever experienced. We loaded up the car and pulled out going as fast as we could all the way there. I was rushed into a room by the medics…

The Gift of the Veil. One day, my mother sent me over to get a package from Uncle Darnell. He lived on the other side of the apartment building we lived. When I got there, he was cutting a man’s hair. I got what I came for and left. As I was walking out the door, I heard the Lord saying, look up at the window. When I looked up, I saw a baby playing in the window, all I could see was his hands and head where he was pulling his up, I said to myself, I pray the baby is not trying to climb out of…

It was chilly saturday evening. My friends, Zaina and Laila, came over to my house to hang out with me. My mom suggested we should jump on the trampoline outside in the backyard. We all decided to do that. The trampoline was hard to get on, I told my sister to get a chair, so I can get on top of the chair and get on the trampoline. Then my sister thought it was a good idea to put the chair back where it was. So I played some music and we all four started to jump. Then I wanted to sit in the…

Seeing the police cars arriving, hearing ambulances honk their way through the busy streets, feeling the anxiousness, tasting the tears as they roll down my face, and smelling the pollution in the air, I realized I’m involved in a crime scene. When I was in 3rd grade, I lived in Brooklyn and went to school in Manhattan. I would take the subway everyday with my dad and brother. One day after school, my dad was holding mine and my brother’s hand while waiting for the R train to come. It was…

the middle of the street and a gray van which its front part was on the sidewalk and seemed like it had knocked over a fire hydrant. Both cars were completely wrecked from the accident. I saw both drivers and some passengers were taken away by two ambulances to the hospital. Something…

the waves knocked to shore. Blood was gushing down his face, his children panicking because their father was leaking of blood into the ocean. His wife had gotten an ambulance for the couple, but she now needed it for her husband. The couple told her that they were fine and to make sure he stayed alive for his children. The ambulance drove away with him unconscious in the back. Twenty-four staples later and he is up and saving lives by doing small things again. My father will be a hero in my eyes…
