We have a new PA in town, David. He came from Kuwait. I was originally going to be his relief but I decided to come to Afghanistan instead. What was I thinking....So, today I had a sick patient in the clinic that I was treating and trying to get to role 3. They were busy so I decided to keep him until 8pm when the ER accepts patient. Meanwhile, another patient came in and needed more long term care. Then the rocket attack alarm went off. My first thought? "Shit" Ok on the floor, IVs and all. Then off to the bunker with a Medic each. Just another day at KAF...
You never say the word"slow" when you're a paramedic, it angers the paramedic gods. So I got a message today that ended,"at least you're not busy." Great. Thanks. Now see what you've done.
David wanted a newer smaller flak jacket. So he went to get one. He went to the gym and missed getting to wear it during the attack. Bummer. My goal, figure out who's fault all this is...
