Re-Inventing Yourself To Serve

Once upon a time I got complacent. Tooling along like I had always done, blaming getting old for hum-drum lack of energy, brain mush, slowing down... Then I met Flo, while home-schooling my grandson, Andy. When Andy graduated she called... "There's an EMT class opening up, do you think Andy might be interested?" Hmmmmm. We went. He registered, I "audited". Then I met Lynn

Lynn with son and grandson

"You goof," she said, "If you are really interested, you can do this too." I was, but wasent I too old? Well sorta- but Andy and I really got into it. Six and a half months of tough training. A book 3" thick, tests, practicals, more tests, finals, state exams.....but I was changing, and so was Andy.
Andy was maturing, and he was handling the incredible realities of the tragic, ill and accidental world for the first time, and maybe save a life with youth, skill and brains. Me? As a minister's wife, I was getting to MAYBE, slow a funeral, save a life, with patience, skill, and experience.
So we did it! With the help of many new friends and old friends. We have learned about Emergency services families. Nation wide volunteers, through out our great land give of their time and energy for their neighbors and their communities. We are honored to be with

Andy

Me- Dont I look better ? My brain is no longer mush, my creative energy is soaring, and my Art work will benefit.
