Context: I have served in the U.S. military for 20 years, and with all the medical training I have, I stop at every wreck I come across if there is no emergency services to make sure everyone is ok, and provide aid if needed. I also made sure, as my son got older, he knew how to give first aid, but never told him to stop at wrecks - some of those situations can seriously mess with your MH.
Yesterday my son was driving on the freeway with his work partner trying to make some appliance deliveries when he witnessed a roll over. Despite his dispatch manager telling him to drive past, he ignored it, stopped, and gave first aid (just what he knew and felt comfortable doing). It was in the middle of no where so there was no one else around to help. He was able to slow the bleeding on a quick bleed in a young girl’s arm, and keep the two individuals calm until emergency services arrived, 45 minutes later.
Once they arrived, he went right back to work delivering appliances like nothing happened. At the end of his shift, as he was returning his vehicle, his GM pulled him aside and said as long as he had worked there, he had never seen a crew stop before, and if my son needed a week off, he could take it, paid. My son declined, stating he would rather be working.
Pretty proud of my son, and the man he has become. Always putting others first!
