Can you hear me now?

The LawDog Files provide the links to a 3-part story, the real face of "Public Service"

I'm tempted to refer to this as 'a morality play in three acts', but this would diminish the story and would be a disservice to the interlocking stories of a LEO, an Ambulance Driver, and the ER nurse in a small-town hospital.

All three authors describe a tragic vehicular accident and the consequence of bad judgement.

In the process, we are given an inside look at the courage and dedication of people who have dedicated their lives to serving their fellow man. The professionalism of the "Public Servants" is demonstrated, as is the excellent writing ability of the authors.

One thing the three parts of the story make clear is that there are often "not enough resources, not enough HANDS!" If you're like me, when you read the story you will be struck by the willingness of all participants to make heroic efforts to save lives.

It's difficult to talk about this without undermining the story, which is well told and fascinating on several levels.

Just ... click on the Lawdog link above, and follow the thread of the story. When you're done, if you appreciate what they have written, please tell the authors.

If you don't appreciate it, don't tell me. I have no traffic with people who have no soul.

And yes, as many people have commented to the authors, it may be something that parents of adolescent children may recommend to the ones they love.
