Pain In Death Joy In Life

There are some jobs that put you in harms way that at the end of the day leaves you saying we did an incredible job. I saw the coldness that some health care people have become after having to face death so often. They seem to form no attachment to their patients for fear of losing themselves bit by bit. 

 

Pain In Death Joy In Life

 

Piloting for rescue missions can be very daunting

A rude awakening and life’s fragility taunting

It takes a special kind of person to see every day

Numbers of people being saved and some passing away

In the emergency helicopter it’s like an ambulance

Numerous people using this service stand a better chance

Didn’t work for window cleaner Roy

EMG’s were called for a helicopter to deploy

Although they effected a rescue, while taking him back

There was an underlying problem which lead to a fatal heart attack

He never had a chance and the female driver, she

Just felt hopeless and took the news very personally

On the way back out she wanted to quit

You can’t said her partner, we are a vital fit

In the next rescue their foreigner couldn’t speak English

Not giving up he got them to turn back as he wish’

Life support rescue was needed for the wife left behind

In labor when they got her and the breached baby boy fine

For a tensed moment it was life and death, touch and go

Emergency care is the most rewarding job I know
