Traumatized

In a way literally,
 
But in another not...

Wonder away people.

So yesterday I was able to help the Unchained crew ( Dad, Jacob, Mr. Kendall, and Lael Weinberger ) while they did some interviews and special scenes for the documentary Detained. We took tons of footage all around Boise, from an interview at BSU all the way to Table rock, we did some really cool scenes for the documentary in the courthouse basement and around the Capitol building. Doing all that took around eleven hours, so it was a fun full day.

Now, as you all probably know I have been taking an EMT course. So this is the part of the post where I talk about that. So... yeah.

Anyway, yesterday we had someone come and look at our house with the realtor and then tomorrow another person is coming around 11:00, so hopefully they will like what they see. We all need to be out of the house when the realtor and the client comes, so I think I am just going to go down to the library, or somewhere quite and do some studying.

So today I had one person kill me and a few others were very close...

Last Tuesday I did a clinical down at the VA in which I took about eleven blood pressures (BPs), listened to lung sounds, took heart rates (HR), temperatures, used a machine that measures the amount of oxygen saturation in the blood, and dealt with the staff and the patients. All in all it was a good learning experience.

I haven't been able to work with dad lately just because I have been so busy studying for classes and things.

Yesterday I volunteered to be a patient for a National Registry test at Guardian College. I was able to get into a trauma station so I got to act as a guy shot in the chest for half the day. ;) It was fun and I learned a lot talking to the paramedic who did the scoring for the station and just watching people do really good and not very good... (That was the guy who basicly let me bleed out becuase he forgot to bandage me up... lol)

I haven't been feeling to good today so Ima have to sign off...
