Oh dear!

GoneButNotForgotten — Mon, 12 Oct 2020 14:26:14 GMT

My sister is back in hospital for a few days--it's the 2nd or 3rd time this year. About 3 years ago she was diagnosed with--and survived--colon cancer but it seems like there are some after-effects that are still plaguing her. (I don't want to go into details because I know it could cause some arguing and I just don't have the stomach for that right now).

Anyway, she'll be there for a couple of days and they're taking good care of her...thank God.

One a slightly light note: is it a requirement that EMT's--the males--all have to be tall, muscular, and good looking? I swear there was one man who could have been constructed out of both I and my husband; he was a REALLY big man. I don't think any of them were under 6'2" or less. If course in that line of work, I'm sure they have to be physically strong too.

Anyway, any thought, prayers, good vibes, etc. for my sister would be greatly appreciated.

EMT's need to be strong... they are the ones that go rescue the 600 plus pound people from out of their houses to the hospital and such.

@SeaMaiden I agree that they have to be strong, but do they have to be so dang handsome, too? My small town, local EMS and Firefighters, are truly amazing specimens. All of them. They're also exceptionally nice. I've teased some of them that they need to put out a calendar . Hey, proceeds to the city, why not?

My prayers are with your sister. Hope she's back home soon doing 100% better.

I don't know what to tell you about the EMT's except enjoy the view.

Sending prayers for a good speedy recovery for your sister🙏🏻

On the other note: I have a dear older friend who falls a lot and of course, the paramedics come each time (they have her garage code)....

anyway, I kid her you just want these good lookin EMTs to come😉

I swear I'm with you @GoneButNotForgotten one is better lookin than the other. With that in mind, I remember when my spouse go sick I had to call 911 fire truck & ambulance come...they almost needed to revive me so handsome🙄😉😳.

Today, we met both my spouse pulmonary and cardiac doctors..I could barely concentrate on what either was saying because they were much better looking in person than on Skype -- both young, handsome doctors😉

I think that's a GREAT idea! I don't know where you are but tell me if they do and I'll buy one!

Just got word that sis is coming home this afternoon...whew! what a day. Thanks for all your kind words.
