Double major in college… graduating with honors. I majored in Criminal Justice and Emergency Medical Science.
Walk normally again after an amputation. I lost my toe due to a bone infection that started with third degree burns.
Work as a bartender. The first night I worked, I’d never mixed a drink in my life. Plus I am not that outgoing.
Work a full time paramedic position. I waited a while after finishing the degree program to apply for jobs due to having no self confidence at all.
Lose 180 pounds without weight loss surgery. It took a long time… but I got to where I needed to be. It’s made a huge difference in my confidence level.
Fall in love. It’s unbelievable just how much I love that man. I thought that feeling only existed in movies… until that moment. It is forever branded in my heart.
Get my National Registry certification. So many medics I knew that are great medics were having problems passing it… I got mine right before the 10 year mark of my original certification. Not much surpasses that feeling of achievement. And I passed it on my first attempt.
Love those who hurt me the most. Some have hurt me pretty badly, yet I still love them. I’m having some issues with some personal relationships right now with this. But, I know that these individuals are struggling with things, so I am trying to be there for them… but apparently, I’m doing it wrong. Being punished by silent treatment or lack of expression of feelings really sucks.
