Your blog inspires so many people. I was so glad to find your post about agonal breathing. It helped me during my studying. I gave your blog site to my friends and they love it. It’s great to read others people journey. –Bella, 2011/11/24
Really glad I found your blog, it’s been very interesting reading your experiences from both your school program and your actual calls on shift. I love the idea of the blog and think I might chronicle my journey as well. Thanks for the inspiration! –Everdeenedge, 2011/11/22

Thank you for creating this blog. It’s the first website I’ve found that I feel confident gives me a good picture regarding paramedic topics in BC. –Vanja, 2011/10/26
Congrats, I just found your blog yesterday and found it to be very interesting, as I am going through the same steps. I just hoped that I would have read it earlier. –G, 2011/10/12
I absolutely love your blog! I am currently in the process of becoming a paramedic in nyc and it feels wonderful to know that I am not the only one in this lol. –Eyana Smith, 2011/09/28
I start Medic school in a week and I think I would like to have a blog … similar to this one. I really enjoy reading it. It was a big help when I was writing my letter of intent while applying to my program. So, thank you very much. –JHealth, 2011/09/10
Love the blog ! Informative and your witty banter is priceless! –Jenn, 2011/09/06
Thank you very much for this blog. It’s been extremely helpful to me as a person planning to become an EMR and later a PCP. –Brandon, 2011/07/16
I’ve thankfully just come across your blog after researching head injury patients on Google. I find it absolutely amazing and informative. Please please carry on blogging, your research and knowledge is of great help to me. Many, many thanks. –Jaime Littlewood, 2011/05/23
Love the site; I just published my book of memoirs as a paramedic in BC, “Blood on my Shirt”; great to see others are writing about their own experiences! –Mike Burzek, 2011/04/09
I love these posts! I’m going in for evaluations to hopefully get into the PCP program today, and I’ve loved reading your blog about the process and you life as a student there. Keep up the good work! –Silly Safety Girl, 2011/03/31
Thank you so much for writing this blog. I currently have my EMR cert and have my assessment day for PCP coming up. Reading this blog has definitely helped answer a lot of questions I’ve had about the training as well as the BCAS application so thank you! –Bren, 2011/02/28
I really must thank you for your blog. I likely would not have started down this path since there wasn’t a whole lot on the EMR program in BC online and most my friends who did it ages ago (post 2007). Your blog really educates and inspires those who are looking to get into it. Cheers! –Ben, 2011/02/24
Just came across your blog and wanted to let you know how awesome it is and thank you for all the great info on it. I’m currently in the PCP program as well as hoping to be hired by BCAS as an EMR pending licensing and an interview, so everything on here is uber relevant to my situation. Cheers! –PCP Dork, 2011/02/16
Thanks so much for summarising so clearly the matter of “Hypoxic Drive” and COPD patients. Nice job Mate. –Alec, 2011/02/05
Hey! I’m also pursuing a career as a Paramedic in BC… except i’m maybe 6 months behind you!! Reading through this blog has been so helpful for me since you have gone through EXACTLY what I am going through now! Thanks again for the blog, really insightful… good luck with everything! –Taisho, 2011/01/06
I just stumbled across your blog – your stories are excellent and the journey you have recounted is fantastic. –John, 2010/12/19
WOW. I came across your blog while looking for information on the pcp programs. I’m currently registered with my emr course this month and I can’t believe how informative your entries have been written. They exactly follow the steps i’ve researched to become a paramedic myself, and so much more!! Great blog. I will be following it from now on. –Trevor, 2010/09/28
Excellent article and very informative. Am a Paramedic in Australia. Recently attended a patient who had late stage COPD (Pink Puffer) – presented in Severe Respiratory Distress but SATs of 98% on home O2. I had not seen this kind of presentation before (two years on road) and was unsure whether High Flow O2 was appropriate given his Sats. From your article it would seem the Haldane Effect was at work and IPPB was the best approach. Thanks. –Alec, 2010/09/18
If that were me lying there,possibly hurt or dying,I would want someone to take action.So,I try to practice what I preach. Thanks for posting this article..It gives everyone something to think about. Keep up the great work!! –Fallenangel39, 2010/09/18
I just got into reading your blog a few days ago, but I have read all the entries and love them! I myself want to join the Emergency Response line of work when I am older. I have found your tales and journeys very inspirational! –Kelsea, 2010/06/30

I am currently studying for an upcoming Cert IV Health (Ambulance) when I stumbled across your blog. From the first post I read I am hooked! I’h hoping to start at the very beginning and read my way through. Such a wealth of information! Keep up the fantastic work, so many people appreciate it! – Simon – Sydney Australia
Wow Simon, you have no idea how much reading that meant. Good luck with your upcoming cert! I’d love to visit Australia some day and maybe see how the service works there.
