Note: Do not miss your shifts or risk public humiliation via listserv postings. Case in point:
If you are Chris Canary, YOU are supposed to be at EMS now. I need a driver for the rescue truck until Chris shows up or until 7pm. Call the Office if you can help.
Today is September 11th 2009. Eight years ago I sat in my geometry class. It was the second day of high school for me. Somebody came in and turned on the TV. I will never forget sitting there and watching the second tower come down. In the minutes that followed there were scattered random rumors, some of them true, of other planes crashing, of car bombs exploding and of people dying. It was a very surreal and scary moment for us sitting there in Mrs. LeBlanc’s math class.
I’m from central New Jersey; you can see lower Manhattan from the hills in my town. As you can imagine, a lot of us lost people we cared for on that terrible day.
I just wanted to write this to remind everyone who now works at Brown EMS to take a minute today and reflect on our brothers and sisters who died that day doing the very same jobs we do everyday. The Fire Department of the City of New York lost 343 members that day, 2 of them were FDNY paramedics. An additional 8 EMT’s and paramedics from private companies were killed as they helped people to escape. As is often the case, they were running in as civilians were running out.
It takes a very special person to do what we do. So to the supervisors and volunteers of Brown EMS:
Thank you.
Stay safe out there. Let’s make it another semester where everybody goes home.
Timothy Satty
Hopefully move-in has proceeded without incident, and you are all ready for another semester of Brown EMS!
