get a refusal and go back on air? all dead is LE's problem:p

A refusal? Is the proper method to obtain this to put the pin in the dead patient's hand and move the hand or move the paper?

Someone signed something. I have only seen no code no vitals twice on my clinicals. someone signed something and the scene was turned over to LE. Not an actual refusal, but similar too.

I've decided I want to put together a book entitled NFAT [nothing further at this time]: Notes from the Front Lines... which would basically be a compilation of all the epic notes officers in my city make, especially on their animal calls. To give you an idea of how epic these stories are, one officer's notes, on a call of a baby raccoon stuck in a dumpster... start as follows:

They say a hero is born everyday. You never know the day that destiny will call you by name and you will be thrust into the position to change a persons life for the better.. or in this case 3 animals; the triplets of the mother raccoon who I shall call for the purposes of this epic adventure, Becca....

Seriously. I love it. Makes my day.

We had a great one today... call for a dead squirrel in a parking lot, lady who called it in was afraid it had rabies or something for some reason...

the officer went into great detail as to how upon further examination he found what appeared to be the bite marks of a cat, fox or similar creature, and that the squirrel must have been unlucky and too slow, nothing criminal evident and no signs of suicide as the cause and no need to call out the Major Crimes Detectives at this time.... XD

This is why I hate hyphenated ancestory. I'm listening to one of my lectures and the professor repeats a few times that hydralazine is a useful drug in "African-Americans" with CHF. It makes me want to ask, "If it works for African-Americans, why won't it work for African-Canadians, African-Brits, or anyone else of African descent that isn't an African American?"

See... I hate PC for that very reason.


The ONLY people that are to be hyphenated are ones that come from said area. If you come from Africa yourself, and are an American citizen, then yes, you're African-American. Asia? Ok, Asian-American. But if you are born in America, you're American. Why is that an insult?



I don't demand to be called "Anglo-Saxon-Germanic-Norwegian-Blackfoot-American", and it's silly that people throw hissy-fits when they are called "Black" / "white" / "hispanic" / etc etc

Actual Africans? Well, they're just out of luck.

Me? I'm a mutt. Who's not nowadays?

What about Charlize Theron? She's African-American; would the drug be useful for her?
