Driving home from the Barbie movie, an EMT on the verge of quitting saves a life after a violent crash — and rededicates herself to emergency medicine and med school.
July 23, 2023, was the day I woke up and decided to finally grapple with a difficult decision: Whether to continue with my emergency medicine education.
We were driving home on I-95 when right in front of us a car in the right lane crashed into a vehicle that had been abandoned on the side of the road. The car spun out, hitting the cement border of the highway. I saw the airbags deploy. It came to a stop diagonally across the right lane."Stop the car," I told my mom. "Someone could be hurt."
A young woman was stumbling out of the passenger door of the car. She sank down onto the ground, mindless of the glass everywhere. She was wearing shorts, and her legs were bare to the shards. I could already tell she was in shock. She was shaking so hard that she could barely walk. I leaned her weight onto my side and helped her toward my car.
Besides small cuts on her legs from the glass and the fact that she was clearly in psychogenic shock, she seemed okay, which was a miracle.
