[...] Ambulance Driver's Aimless Tweets – A Day In The Life Of An … [...]
You know — last time you used that crack about the worst part about getting a lung transplant being what you coughed up ain't your own — I brought that up in my lung transplant support group and I thought a few of my friends were going to vomit… I guess in the grand scheme of things, there are worse issues than coughing up someone else' stuff — I could easily be dead… And seriously, the joke is kinda hilarious… But really — the gift I got from a beautiful girl from Iowa and her family blows my freaking mind every day — and I've been breathing with her lungs almost 10 years now — I think about it always, and I think about her always…
Thanks for doing what you're doing… I had a couple of ambulance drivers in my life who are the reason I'm still breathing… Actually, more than a couple. I remember two taking care of me… But I also know that there were two who transported my donor to the hospital where she passed away. I don't know what would have happened to me, but I wish she didn't pass away… But I'm also thankful for the ambulance drivers who cared for her on her way to the hospital — she might not have saved seven lives if it were not for them… Love, Steve
You know, Steve, I get a lot of comments on this blog, and I've coded more than a few people for no other reason than to preserve organs, and I've done my share of organ transfers, and never given much thought to who is getting the organs.
And getting a comment like yours give me the biggest charge of all. Thanks, man.

I always wondered how Freddie Mercury knew anything about fat bottomed girls.
