I think Firefighter are awesome! One time our electricity got shut off and tge power company didn't turn it on til the next day. The Rickytheghostseer got a severe asthma attack. I had no electricity to give him his treatment so I ran him to the FireDepartment down the street. Those guys were so helpful and understanding. They helped me set up the nebulizer and took Rickys blood pressure and oxygen levels so efficiently and calmly so not to scare him. And there are other times of assistance aswell such as the fire we had. They are true Heros! |

I remember during my big car accident the firefighters were first on the scene.. I think we were right by a station or something.. Anyway, one of the guys told me he had been in the shower and he kept joking with me. I remember he really kept me in high spirits and I didn't even cry for a long time. I was totally in shock of course from all the pain and all.. but he really helped. When I have seizures they always come to my house with the ambulance too and even though I never really remember it I hear that they are always real helpful. I know the volunteers are really helpful as well Kiki is right, they are true heros! |

I have a deep respect for Fire Fighters. I work with two men who are volunteer fire fighters. I hear the stories and understand it is not just about fighting a fire. I thank all fire fighters, because without you, we are destined to lose much more than we should. When my home had caught on fire, I saw the fight in the fire fighter to control it. I saw the compassion and remorse they felt when the fire was out and there was still a great loss.. however, I saw it as a triumph and victory because no person was hurt or worse. All was saved but one of my cats. A Fire Fighter had gone in to try and save him, but he was no where to be found until the next day. He had crawled into the inside lining of a piece of furniture, claws still embedded to the underside wood of the seat.. even I would not have been able to locate him in time. |

Being a fireman {or firewoman} is indeed a very stressful job, I put them right up there with the police and those people that complain about them are usually the ones who whine aand cry if they call for help and help doesn't arrive in 10 seconds. So, my hat is off to you and to everyone who works in your field. |

The sight of a family, or just one person releive that I saved them, or helped them in any way makes my heart glow. I'm still young, I will witness many more both wonderful and tragic experiences. Thanks for listening. |
