Surviving all the curveballs.

Bad grammar and spelling.
What is your most memorable moment in your EMS career?
When I was working for Mobile Care I was taking home a guy in his 70s. He had been discharged from hospital and we were taking him home with hospice,

Coffee flavored ice cream.

If you could meet anyone in the history of the world, who and why?
