“And pray that there’s intelligent life somewhere up in space, ‘cause there’s bugger all down here on earth.”

Remember the case last year when a guy popped back in when they were harvesting his organs, so the Dr’s killed him?

Having already died, crossed over, and returned to this body; I am NOT an organ donor.

Reminds me of the movie “Heaven Can Wait” with Warren Beatty.

[Psalm 73]

"How do two medics get it this wrong?"

Too much work to complete the CPR process - maybe near the end of their shift?

(Lowered medical technician standards? Equity?)

“Upon notification of this incident, we immediately removed both fire medics from their normal duties and discontinued their abilities to provide patient care…..”

How can you “discontinue their abilities to provide patient care” when clearly, they possessed no such ability.

“Rampart, we’ve defibrillated the patient. He’s in sinus rhythm now.”

How do nursing home “care-givers” abuse so many of their wards - total disdain for life and doing a job right...

The Terri Schiavo school of Paramedics.

[Secret Agent Man]

Yeah, really. Or the Monty Python “bring out your dead” school.

Mostly alive so one can keep on posting to FR!

“Better a live dog than a dead lion.” Proverbs IIRC.
