a bad week (MVA's and multi casulty fire)

So this week, we had an MVA involving one of my fellow firefighters, when we found him he was breathing six a minute and was rushed to the hospital, I was one of the first people to see him in the ICU on a vent and all I wanted to do was cry, but I stayed strong. Then we had a multi casualty fire, seeing those bodies wasn't the best sight I have ever seen.

Hey Sarah, Good Luck with the Mayor down there. This is hard for me to understand how he would put all the people of your town in danger. If there is a fire are they providing any fire services at all. Good Luck and Keep in touch, I want to know what happens with this.
