Well it is the last day. My focus for the day was enjoying the time with everyone so I wasn't as concerned about having the perfect calls or anything like that. Don't get me wrong, I would be happy to have some good calls if they came.

The day started with the service call to the bank and post office. Yesterday I thought that was where we were going when we took the station worker home after they weren't feeling good. So I still had some of my exaggerated excitement I had from yesterday.

The second call was to a woman who had started medicine that lowered her blood pressure and she hadn't had anything to eat or drink and subsequently fainted. We were met by two little boys to show us where to go. There was some discussion between the patient, her husband and the medic about what they were going to do. We could take her to the hospital in the ambulance but it wouldn't be with lights and sirens, just a regular drive and so it wouldn't be all that different than going in their own car to the hospital. They eventually decided to have us transport her.
The next call was to a worker who had fallen off the side of a work truck. We backboarded him and took him to the hospital.
Our last call of our MDA experience was to a car accident in a nearby village. When we got on scene there was a lot of people milling around. We got the patient into the chair and loaded her into the back of the ambulance. The woman's young child was handed to her and they both road in the back of the ambulance. They both seemed okay and we transferred them to a very busy ER.
Back to the station for goodbyes and some pictures.
Well it is at this point that I want to thank all of my readers and to thank all the wonderful people I have met this summer. What an adventure!
I'll be spending my last few days in Jerusalem before flying home.
It's been amazing!
