It's been a while since I have posted anything to Happenings in EMS.
Over the past several months there have been a number of LODD's as well as Suicide's by MOS.
What seems to have happened is that no one is immune to PTSD and that we do not have to face it alone.
It has been brought to the forefront and we have resources. Whether it's from a formal established group, agency or service. If needed reach out and take advantage of it.
Also make connections with Co workers, Friends, Family or even stranger's who work in the same career or anyone of the other Emergency Service's.
Also find ways to remove yourself from the darkness that we have to walk into to help those who can't or need our assistance.
We have chosen this path and we do it to help are fellow man and woman by experiencing the worse that society has to offer on any given day so that other's don't or won't have too.
I usually make sure that I always have every other weekend off which is 3 days that include Saturday, Sunday and Monday.
Time is spent with Family, Friends and Neighbors relaxing in the yard or home.
Other times it is spent with hobbies, listening to music, working around the house or yard or just sitting outdoors with the sounds of nature as well as the smells and visual stimulations as can be found in the attached videos and photos.
