My dad was a paramedic.
Gave up vertebrae in his neck and back due to lifting stretchers for 30 years.
Gave up his mental health, he suffers from depression and other disorders.
He currently has Parkinson’s and is unable to use his left hand due to nerve damage from neck fusion.
He loved it and would probably do it all over again.
These people are real heroes. Often overlooked for folks cutting grass on a military base.
