Yesterday scared me. Just seeing a person I barely know in pain and the uncertainty of what the out come would be was no good at all. I did as much as I could to help. I'm glad I was semi prepared. You know me I always have the items that you think you'd never need... but when you need it I have it. It was a sickening sight but I cleaned and dressed the wound. There was a lot of blood. You feel entirely different with blood on your hands.. Soon after lifeguards came and then the paramedics to take them off to the hospital. We rode our bikes to the HB hospital and waited. Didn't get the chance to see them but talked to their mother. X-rays were being taken.

She fell off her bike and hit her head. Scraped up her left side of her body and the skin on her right toes were hanging off by flaps. She said she couldn't talk when she was laying on the ground holding her head. The lifeguards and paramedics put a neck brace on her and I helped put her on a stretcher.

I was very pleased to find out she just has a sprained neck and back.

This was one of those feelings where you think wow. I made a difference and I never want something like this to happen to anyone.
