What made me happy today...

[ComaChameleon]

Hey guys.

In one of my old forums I was a member of (not existing anymore since this year), we had a thread where everybody just told in short what made them happy this day. Thought it would be nice for here too!

To start: I'm working for EMS and my first call today was am expected birth. So we hoped we would be able to bring her into hospital just in time. But it didn't work. I was at the patient and she just said "it's coming"... My team-mate was driving REALLY fast, it took him about an kilometer to brake - during that time the baby was just born. Even we were a really young team and not long into job, we did VERY well and even the doctors told us we did excellent.

(Our last call was a reanimation on the street, the woman did not get an own circulation again.... But I guess that's the circle of life :D)

@Cleoriff That sounds very acceptable! 

@pgn It's the same here. But it's mostly young women. It's about 13-15 cases in 1,6 mio dose. 

So now they changed the campaign, people 60+ can get it voluntary (normally it's still 80+ and people workrelated). Before it was only under 65.

In Berlin they've shown much interest in it.

My 80+yr old parents - Dad got the AZ one, second dose last week. My Mum, confined to bed, got given her first dose AZ yesterday.

Yes, I think so - with carers calling in 3 times each day for my Mum, it seemed like madness to have left it so long.

Rip off merchants ...that goes for all vets! What did Chester need doing @jonsie ?

[jonsie]

He went for his annual injection...

...but, they decided he was under-weight (he eats like a horse) and that he was older than the 7-8 years I gave them.

But it was the same vet that put his age at 6-7 when I got him

Upshot is that they have taken a blood test to check his kidney function

So I've paid for the consultation, the blood test and they shaved some fur off that was matted

Worse though, they haven't given him his annual booster until the blood tests come back

That will be another £42.50

I do have insurance but have had to pay today and try to claim it back

I now have an older, balder and possibly a sicker cat according to them

He's been absolutely fine, healthy and content

Guess I'm paying for their lockdown loss of revenue!

P*ssed off I am!
