I made it through my shift. Today we had an emergency and had to call 911 and do first aid for a woman who passed out during a fitness class.

It was very scary. I have never had to use my first aid training before. It was very scary. She was ok, and went home rather than the hospital. I am so on edge after that! It put things into perspective for me, though. The woman is fighting cancer and loves her life. I feel a little guilty because I am not fighting for my life and half the time I want to die. I want to appreciate my life. I need to learn how.
