Very sad burns are terrible to treat. He had less than a 5 percent chance. They probably kept him totally sedated and maybe to the point of being on a ventilator. It is unbearable pain. I pray for him and his family. Horrible.

Unimaginable, isn't it? But another FReeper explained that they go in and out of numbness. He was on many medications and a ventilator. As much as he wanted to stay, he had to go...

Hubby said yes, he was on a respirator.

May he rest in peace. He actually lived a few days longer than I expected him to.

Prayers for those who will be effected by this.

He was 23 years old. I believe there was one younger, 20.

Damn. It's not surprising given the extent of his burns but very sad just the same.

RIP Pablo Cerda.

Earlier this week I heard an interview with a woman who three of the deceased CDF firefighters had helped deliver her baby on a roadside about a year ago. Seems they were great men.

Prayers for the families of Pablo Cerda and the other four firefighters who have answered their last alarm.

May they Rest In Peace and may God Bless them all.
