Incident: Man Down & Out
Just a few days ago, for our Brothers over at Station # 24, it was just another day on the job... rushing to a 911 call to save someone in the midst of having a heart attack. Little did they now, that it would not be just any call... but they would be racing to the aid of one of our own! Seems our Engineer aka: Chauffeur had taken a nasty fall at home during a 'mild' heart attack. From the fall (over and on to a solid oak coffee table), he sustained 3 cracked ribs and partially collapsed lung.Luckily, Brennan would be received into excellent hands. He received immediate care and quick transport to local hospital within minutes.
Our Engineer had been enjoying his second day off from work at home. According to him, he didn't notice any oncoming symptoms at all. (A "silent" myocardial infarction). Trust me when we say, this has completely taken us all by surprise.
As of today, he's recovering in the hospital still and they plan to keep him in a few more days. During the next 6 weeks, we are sure to see him transform into quite the couch potato. Which is expected.
So, since he's busy in the grips of those higher powers to be at the hospital, we'll be busy taking care of things around his home of course. Cause... that's what Brothers do.
So... if we are not around much, you now know why.
Be safe and never take anything for granted, especially good health. Always expect the unexpected.
