Good Morning!

What a treat today!
In the four years I have been a member, I have never had the opportunity to hear a member of the BC Ambulance Service speak...
This morning, we had Tony Fryer speak to us not as a member of Chilliwack Search and Rescue, but as an Advance Life Support Paramedic.
Interesting fact that Tony shared- it was our own Brian C that helped him to the path to become a Paramedic.
We also heard how closely Paramedics work with the Fire Department,  Police, Doctors and Hospitals.
We heard how Chilliwack had over 20,000 calls last year with 6-8 Paramedics on each shift. Our ground ambulances travel more then 2 million kms a year. We heard about the challenge that our 'local' commute times cause.
When we got to ask questions, we learned that one day Tony got to be Superman to a little boy, and helped him cope with the situation at hand.
So we met a true Superman today!

Thank you Tony for all you do for our community!
Even with all the craziness Chilliwack deals with we are so lucky to have our first responders and other groups that are all about making Chilliwack a better place. Thank you to all of you!
See you next week,
Michelle

Tony is an amazing man and has touched so many with his story of the superman experience with the little boy. Love the fact that even though Tonys life is so full helping others that he takes the time with his patients to meet their physical needs but always goes that extra mile.. Just thinking about that little boy meeting superman brings tears to my eyes and makes me realize that there are still great Supermen out there.. Great Job Tony... Keep it coming.. <3
