We received this letter via email regarding a recent call:

First I want to say a big THANK YOU to those that responded, you ALL did a great job!! A special Thanks to getting the chopper on the way as soon as you arrived!!!
[Redacted] , the patient , received a negative CT scan and went to surgery to close his scalp wound around 6pm on Saturday. He was kept overnight for observation and released from the hospital Sunday morning. He was actually back in Matty on Tuesday working on the boat. He said he did not remember anything until he was in the hospital around 1-2pm. The accident in the shed, response on location, or the chopper ride.

As a retired first responder of 30+ years, almost 10 in municipal volunteer service and 25 on the industrial side, I can say when you witness someone you know in a traumatic accident things change! I was and am very Thankful for all your efforts during the response, the decision to get the chopper on the way ASAP, and all of the care given throughout the response!!
It is nothing personal , but I hope I never have to see you again!! LOL , unless it is of course to shake your hand in person and say THANK YOU AGAIN!!
Feel free to use this post if you wish. Thank you again and I will be checking out that DONATE button!! ... See MoreSee Less

Be prepared, know before you go.
Strong rip currents will continue through tonight.
Swim near lifeguards, don't let young kids swim alone.
Caught in a rip - swim parallel to the shore to escape the rip then swim back. Call out! ... See MoreSee Less
