I love how her colleague just jumps into action, keeps her cool, organises everything, kicks mum out of the drivers seat and gets them safely to the hospital, all while comforting her understandably completely terrified colleague. That right there is the essence of being a good paramedic and friend.

[@Sarge92]

its what there trained to do and they do it well they are all a credit to the nhs and the response from dispatch is not fake i know this because ive experianced the same from WMAS dispatch with my mom anouther medic on the show is my Stepfather and his wife had terminal cancer and there was a few times when the call came in he had to be at her side relief crews where scheduled he was stood down and taken immidlaty to her sadly my mom is no longer with us but the most heartwarming thing they did for us was in the final month firstly when we took her to the hospice they aranged a crew who knew my mom to assist my stepdad in transporting her they sat on standby that morning my stepdad was struggling so they sent the crew who also contained a close freind to comfort him the final thing they did was at the funeral we was walking down the driveway to the crematorium as we rounded a corner there must have been atleast 12-20 paramedics and the manager all stood in a line saluting us as we walked past them i dont remember the number but i do remember when i sat down i didnt see them enter but when i aproached the lectern to give my eulogy there they where loads of them in the back rows of the church there to pay there respects my mom was not a medic she didnt work for them she didnt do anything really for them but like my stepfather they considered her family and came to pay there respects theese paramedics really are some of the most selfless loving and kind people you could ever meet and as this episode shows many have there own shit going on but they still put on the uniform put on that smile and will be at your side when you need them just like they was at ours when we needed them and even when we didnt think we needed them

I'm an EMT. I was on duty when my dad's at home cardiac arrest went out over the air. I called out of service, called my supervisor, told them I was heading that way, and went. I was driving, but I was driving safely and normally. About halfway from where we were to the house, my partner looked at me and said "You're in an ambulance you know. No one is gonna pull you over if you exceed the speed limit a bit" My partner helped with the arrest, took care of me after they called him, and checked up on me for a while afterwards. The bond you make on an ambulance is like no other. You spend 12+ hours locked in a cab, responding to calls, working with, eating with, sleeping next to, that person. When shit hits the fan, whether it be an on shift moment, or a personal moment outside of the job, that partner is gonna be your rock.

[@world4saker]

there is your family and your work family that work bond is wonderful

[@TallDrinkOfCoffee]

This is exactly what makes it so special. It's family built through trial by fire.

[@Mori-chandesu]

It is the same way for those of us who work on the air ambulance or in my case worked until i lost my leg in a wreck. You gain a connection to your partners, the people your with every day teach you so much and you teach them and its a bond that will never be broken.

[@praetorxian]

Similar story here. I was working an OT shift when my grand-father went in to cardiac arrest. My first cardiac arrest as a rookie BLS medic 6 months in to the job. We jumped the call because we had a student. It wasn't until we were halfway to scene when the address clicked in my brain and I figured out who it was. I was first through the door and saw my grandmother doing CPR as best she could. I had to take care of her while also trying to save my grandfather. Ultimately, we pronounced him dead. My part-time partner was a rock star, we still work together 10 years later as two seasoned, full time ALS Paramedics. We b*tch, we squabble, we share dark humour, talk about cute nurses, we know each other better than our spouses, etc. But when sh*t hit the fan (and we are sh*t magnets), we work as a team and have each others back. He's like a brother.

My mom was an EMT (now retired) who had just joined the ambulance company in my town when my dad had a massive heart attack and went into cardiac arrest. My mom began CPR while on the phone with 911. When the ambulance got there her crew member thought she was just in the area and responded as a first responder. When my mom told her that no this is her home and this is her husband my moms crewmate immediately took over CPR as they worked on him. My dad was 36 when he had his first heart attack and thanks to my mom beginning CPR when she did he turned 62 this year!

[@fionamackie3357]

I really feel for Mum. The stress of many years wondering when your child's condition might take them from you is crushing. My son has cystic fibrosis and earlier this year I stood at the end of his bed seeing the x-rays and being told he probably would not leave hospital. Then, Trikafta came on the PBS here in Australia and three days after taking it, he was complaining about having to stay longer in hospital for the initial monitoring. 7 months on, he has not been back (except for clinic). He's nearly ready to get his licence, he's done some short courses and joined men's shed. He just turned 20. I, however, am suffering from the effects of basically 19 years of waiting for him to die, because that wasn't his only run-in by any stretch. I can't wait to trust in his new health.

I was a nurse surrounded by fellow medical personnel who knew what to do. When I finally came to I was in the ambulance. Once at the hospital ED, I was found to have a mass in my Right Frontal Lobe. I was transferred from the local hospital to a trauma hospital in our capital city. They confirmed the mass and location. I then met my amazing Neurosurgeon. I ended up having a stage 3 Astrocytoma. I ended up having brain surgery where they were able to remove 75% to 80% of the tumor. I knew enough to know I knew too much.

My sister Bronwyn was born in 1952. Her waters broke a day before her birth. Mum said they smelled bad. She’d been transverse (sideways) in Mum’s womb, and while Mum was in labor, they tried to turn her. But couldn’t. They did a high forcep delivery. Mum was in agony. Bronwyn was born floppy and was a very sleepy baby. She was later diagnosed with cerebral palsy, having been starved of oxygen at birth, or during labor. She’s now just turned 70 this year. Although she’s disabled, she’s lived a full life. Married a wonderful, loving man. I wish so much that the medical help she and Mum needed was available at the time. But this video showed me to be grateful for all the years we’ve had Bronwyn. So glad the girl in the video is still with us. 🙏🏻❤️🇦🇺

I don't have Cerebral Palsy but I was born with a heart defect called the Atrial Septal Defect (ASD) and they told me I wouldn't surive the first day, yet this year in a few months I will turn 20. My mother always told me I had an angel on my shoulder protecting me. it's very difficult as a mother to hear their baby wouldn't make it the first day or hours and then they're strong enough to do but when something like this happens all that fear will come back to you, my heart goes out to whoever has to deal with this as a mother and father and I wish everyone a long happy and healthy life without any worries.

I can relate. I was working as a hospital security officer when my mother's health worsened dramatically. I was late for work one night because I found her on the floor as I was leaving. She was scheduled to see her PCP the next day, so she refused to go to the hospital. The next night, it happened again, and she chose to go to work with me. I alerted the ER staff on arrival, and spent the night alternating between my routine duties and checking on my mother.

Unfortunately this isn’t anything new for me. One of my childhood friends was a lot like Jessica.I don’t think she had CP, but she had a plethora of medical issues since birth and wasn’t suppose to make it past a few months. Blind, non-verbal, bound to a motorized wheelchair, SUPER violent seizures, and couldn’t even bathe or use the toilet on her own. Even so Elizabeth was the life of the party. Even if she couldn’t communicate she could still understand what you were saying. If you told her “hey give me a high five” she’d do it no problem. If you put on ABBA’s Dancing Queen (her favorite song) she’d bust a move. In a case of bitter irony, she died in her sleep when she was 17 in…I want to say 2015.

In cases such as these people outside don't see the true blessing these people are to their families. I have known many people with a plethora of different handicaps and each was a blessing to everyone that knew them. My life has been altered by each of the people I have known threw the years. One such girl was in a car accident and had horrible head trauma and injuries to her spinal column. She couldn't do anything for herself really but as I worked with her she began to do a little better. She would lift her tush to be charged and open her mouth to be fed. When I first started working with her she was only 16 years old and when I move away she was 20. She progressed but will never be able to care for herself. As far as I know she is still in that nursing home being combative to all those people that treat her like she is not a human being, like she doesn't know what they are doing She was very smart but had no way to communicate it because no one else ever talked to her or explained what they were doing to her. It hurts my heart to see how the people in some nursing homes are treated.

Hi everyone, is this a clip from a tv series? Would love to know how this story unfolds more thanks

[@Catlover-jr4mj]

Seriously! They shouldn’t make such a big mistake between two very different illnesses. Because most people with cistic fybrosis don’t use a wheelchair, bit many with cerabel Palsy do! So I was like WTF! Guys please correct the mistake, especially if it’s a real case…

[@jessbatchelor685]

I think she has cf, but because of this, she was deprived of oxygen at birth, resulting in cerebral palsy

[@jessbatchelor685]

So she has both

[@jessbatchelor685]

My guess anyway xx

[@bemy26thsubscriber]

I think her mum knows what she has tbh. That’s the girls mother talking in the background

[@julitt4317]

@@jessbatchelor685 I watched the episode when it first went out. She has cerebral palsy, not CF. CF doesn't deprive a baby of oxygen at birth ever. It's not even diagnosed for a while after the baby arrives.
