These are the trying, true stories of the mobile emergency medical technicians who often are the only thing standing between any one of us and death. Author Pat Ivey uses her extensive firsthand experiences, as well as an unflinching eye for drama and detail, to bring us the unheard tales of heroism and courage of the EMT units. She takes us into a hidden world of children in need, women seeking shelter from the storm of abuse, and the realities of industrial accidents. A simple car crash turns into a Herculean effort, an epic struggle against the clock and against the odds.
Tragic misfortunes that usually occur silently in everyday America and the men and women who try to heal these heart‑pounding predicaments are put reverently on stage in this heroic, honest, and compassionate compilation of true action adventures.
