    Our Ambulance is Getting a New Engine!

    That's oil... that leaked from the radiator area... I think... and threw up all over the engine... We had brought this elderly woman in earlier in the day ... her neighbors found her laying in her own feces, urine, and blood on a couch... nobody had seen her for 4 days, and I'm guessing she had been on the couch for 4 days. Anyway, we took her to the local hospital which then decided to transfer her out with blood infused for a major GI bleed. So we were doing the emergency transfer, lights and sirens, then here comes the smoke covering the front windshield... I shut 'er down, and called for the other unit to come take the call... we waited for the tow truck to bring a backup... safe to say ours will be in the shop for quite a while. And yes, I checked the oil... or at least that's what's written on the check off sheet for the day *winks*
