Brad: Are you all right?
Lydia: What...what happened?
Brad: You lost consciousness and
someone called 911. My name is
Brad and I’m a paramedic. Can you
answer a few questions for me?
Lydia: I’ll try.
Brad: Have you ever blacked out
before?
Lydia: No, I don’t think so.
Brad: Do you have a history of
medical problems? Do you have any
allergies to medication?
Lydia: Not that I know of.
Brad: Okay. Where are you hurt? Are you in
any pain?
Lydia: I think I hit my head when I fell down.
Oh, it’s bleeding. Oh my God, I’m
bleeding!
Brad: Stay calm and let me examine the
wound.
Lydia: Oh my God, I’m going to bleed to
death!
Brad: Try to stay still. The wound
doesn’t look too serious, but we’ll get you to
the hospital to get checked out.
We’ll get a stretcher so we can get
you into the ambulance and take you
to the emergency room. Try to stay
clam.
Lydia: Calm? How can I stay calm when I’m
bleeding to death? I need a
helicopter to take me to the hospital
right away. Call medivac!
Brad: Ma’am, you don’t need a helicopter. I’m
just going to give you a little
injection to help you with the pain
and to help you relax.
Lydia: I’m going to die...I’m going to...
Brad: Phew!
