firewoman

I'm back here again... Hi everyone!!
Well, I was looking at my old pictures when suddenly I found the pictures from my job as a firewoman. I remember as if it were today I start to Train a learn a lot things about fire deparment and first aid. It was a great time and good experience. I met a lot people and I made good friends.
It took 8 months training and learning and we were always learning every day different emergency situation.

I started training while I was studying to become a nurse and I was a volunteer at fire departament and after some years the goverment started to pay a little. I worked at the fire department almost 4 or 5 years and when I was 19 years.

I always worked at the emergency medical service because I was studying to become a nurse also and I didn't like the fire service because is too hard for some women to do that job. I didn't like the job for several reasons: the hose water is very hard to hold and also the smell of burning and insulation and the feeling of the intense heat and being able to see absolutely nothing in the smoke the flame and being afraid of death and another thing that I didn't like at all it is when the capton or chef call duties.

It's also not easy working at the emergency medical service, but it was more familiar to me. I felt frustrated many times when I went to the emergency room and the doctor pronounces "dead" the beautiful  3 years old girl that I had been trying to save during the past 25 minutes. I thought it could be my niece who will never go on her first date or say the words, "I love you aunt again"...
It sucks to find a woman around 60 years old with no pulse, but I have to start CPR any way, hoping to bring her back, knowing sometimes it is too late.

I always heard good things when I was working there, but the terrible thing that I heard one day was:
"I thought this would never happen to me or it took a long time or forever for you get here". they dont how hard is our job to get at the right place.
Unless  you have lived with this kind of experience or situation, you will never truly understand or appreciate, we are or what our job really means.
