In this video 0:00 The Weight of Traumatic Calls1:07 Miracle Rescue: The Choking Baby3:15 Transformed Faith and Bold Witness
The Weight of Traumatic Calls 0:17 It seemed like everywhere I turned, that's all all I could see was this baby on that carpet. The sights and the smells, you keep them with you. It's like wearing a backpack and these you know, some of these calls are,0:29 you know, little rocks. Some of them are bigger, heavier rocks. But over the course of a career, we have, you know, we have this weight that we start you know, you get to the point where you can't carry it anymore. And I0:39 think that's where we can break. At that time, I was more of a check the box, Christian. So I didn't know I I really didn't know where to go, or how to handle, my feelings0:51 or how I was feeling at that point. That's what led me to to, you know, being saved. I can't even begin to describe the the times that God is I've seen him at work, at1:03 my workplace, in my home. So I remember getting a call, I get down to the engine and, I, you know, I'm looking to see where we're going, look at at the call details. It was an 8Miracle Rescue: The Choking Baby 1:14 month old choking, could have possibly choked on Allego, and the baby is not breathing. We pull up and you can see this big officer hold a veteran officer with the department and he's1:26 holding this small baby. And I go to look and sure enough, there it is in this in the in the trachea of this, of this child are you can just see the sides of 21:38 Legos. So I go in. I try to get them out with the with the McGill forceps, and I can't get around them. And I'm thinking it was the most helpless feeling knowing1:50 that that it's get that out or this baby's gonna die. I remember just looking looking up to the sky, and I said, god, hang on. This kid this baby needs you, and I2:02 need you right now. And, so we got in the back of the ambulance, and I'm sitting in his head. We have a seat up there. And I'm sitting in his head, and we start going. And the only thing I'm focused on is I2:13 need to get this Lego out. I went in, and I was able to get around. I opened those forceps up, and I was able to open up his trachea a little bit, stretch it enough to where I can grab the edges of this lego. And,2:26 it was I can't even describe the feeling when I when I clamped down those mcgills, those forceps, and I knew that I had that in my it you know, solidly in in in my grasp, and I was able to pull them out.2:38 The airway's open, but he hasn't been breathing for, you know, who knows how you know, 5, 6, 7 minutes now. And so it was, like, hey. Get an o 2 sat. You work on vitals. Get an IV stripped. We're ready to go. And I2:50 think within less than 60 seconds, he he started breathing. Probably within 30 seconds, he started breathing. His oxygen saturation started started rising. He started crying. It was the greatest3:02 sound I'd ever heard. I remember walking into the ER as this chaos is going on, just looking up and saying thanks, you know, and and, giving him his due, certainly, because it wasn't me. It was3:14 him. You know, in the past when I've had these things, I didn't know where to go. You know? It was more, you know, you just think, like, I've gotta do this. I've gotta do this. And then I think about it's like, I I can'tTransformed Faith and Bold Witness 3:25 do anything without him. It's given me a confidence to share my beliefs with others. It's given me a confidence when other people are struggling, and they they see it. You know? How do you how do you deal with3:37 this? You know? I tell him, I go, it's not me. It's my relationship with the lord. You know, he went from walking next to me to being inside me.
