Excellent!! That's one thing I would recommend to everyone. (Except I've always wondered, what happens if you come across a medical issue in 3 years and one day?? Can you still help?).
I have been involved in a number of rescue type exercises - during a St. John's Ambulance competition, my team (of 4) would have come in first if it weren't for a fatal flaw that, apparently, I made (OK - not apparently - I made it). I was devastated. As teammates, I had two fire service types who were trained up the ying-yang and a guy who was training to be a frigging' paramedic. And I made the mistake and let the side down. I was so distraught until I learned of my error. At the outset of the rescue, I failed to ask the still conscious person "Can I help you?".
Seems instead of focusing on actually stemming the blood flow, I should have been focusing on the legalities behind the rescue.
My team still bought me a beer (or six).Courage is not the absence of fear but acting in spite of it.

I'm actually quite nervous about this... It is such a huge responsibility and I'm hoping that if I am put in the situation, I'm able to remember what to do.... I used to lifeguard years ago (high school days) and although I learned all of this back then too, I didn't take it as seriously as I do now... I was even debating a few weeks ago whether or not to volunteer for this.... I've had a lot of "mom" medical experience with both of my kids and their many surgeries over the years, so I figured with that, and the first aid course today, hopefully I'll be able to help someone instead of being a helpless bystander....

Thanx Loocie - you're priceless.
I often envy those who grew up in this fine country and possess the relevant frames of reference and personal history/experience to draw from.
I'm nonetheless proud of my heritage and how so many immigrants contribute to our giant melting pot we call Canada.
Have a good night all.

Just curious, was that the Mary Otter competition within the Forces, or the Ontario Open First Aid Competition? I coached an Air Reserve team that won the first one, and I was on a team from SkyDome that won the second one. I'm not bragging, I'm just ... well, yes I guess I am bragging.

Subject: Itchy Parts
A female dwarf goes to a doctor complaining of an embarrassing itch in the groin area.
The doctor looks her up and down, picks her up and stands her on his desk.
He lifts up her skirt and puts his head under. A little perplexed, she hears snip, snip, snip, snip.
The doctor emerges from under her skirt. "How's that?" he asks
"Well, it's a lot better actually" she says, "but...........it's still there."
Undaunted, he dives back under her skirt. Snip, snip, snip,snip.
Out he comes. "How's that?" he asks again more confident.
"That's wonderful! What did you do?" she asked.
"I trimmed the top of your Ugg boots."

IN RESPONSE TO THE EMAIL CONCERNING MY DOG...
Please be advised I am sick and tired of receiving questions about my dog who mauled six illegal immigrants,two rappers,
nine teenagers with pants hanging down past their cracks, eight customer service desk people speaking in broken English,
three burners, and a Pakistani taxi driver.
FOR THE LAST TIME The dog is NOT for sale

THE GAY FLIGHT ATTENDANT:
(This one is too funny not to forward!)
My flight was being served by an obviously gay flight attendant , who seemed to put everyone in a good mood as he served us food and drinks.
As the plane prepared to descend , he came swishing down the aisle and told us that 'Captain Marvey has asked me to announce that he'll be landing the big scary plane shortly , so lovely people , if you could just put your trays up , that would be super.'
On his trip back up the aisle , he noticed this well-dressed and rather Arabic looking woman hadn't moved a muscle. 'Perhaps you didn't hear me over those big brute engines but I asked you to raise your trazy-poo , so the main man can pitty-pat us on the ground.'
She calmly turned her head and said , 'In my country , I am called a Princess and I take orders from no one.'
To which (I swear) the flight attendant replied , without missing a beat ,
'Well , sweet-cheeks , in my country I'm called a Queen , so I outrank you. Tray-up , !'

WHAT A COINCIDENCE!!!!A chicken farmer went to a local bar.... Sat next to a woman and ordered a glass of champagne..
The woman perks up and says, 'How about that? I just ordered a glass of champagne,too!'
'What a coincidence' the farmer says. 'This is a special day for me.... I am celebrating'
'This is a special day for me too, I am also celebrating!' says the woman.
'What a coincidence!' says the farmer! As they clinked glasses the man asked, 'What are you celebrating?'
'My husband and I have been trying to have a child and today my gynecologist told me that I am pregnant!'
'What a coincidence,' says the man. 'I'm a chicken farmer and for years all of my hens were infertile, but today they are all laying fertilized eggs.'
'That's great!' says the woman. 'How did your chickens become fertile?'
'I used a different cock,' he replied.
The woman smiled and said, 'What a coincidence.'
