Good afternoon
Yes, it is cold outside. Moving in the freezing temps is not fun. Better get to it!

Re: Pat
Thank you. You are either into the EMS biz or you aren't. I was for some crazy reason.
The other shooting that I mention, but don't explain was the backdrop/final curtain to another story I did - The Touch. I caught a shotgun to the legs and belly. I was in the hospital for several weeks, but I came out just fine. I still have a couple of pellets in my leg that will set off an airport alarm, but I have begun to explain the to them before I walk into the scanner.
As I went back to read something in that chapter, I can see that I have accidentally changed a few things that I never meant to change. The addition or subtraction of one or two words completely changed the story tone. After I get back from walking the dogs, I am going to have to go back over it. I have already fixed one error that Grammarly must have changed. The passage was to have read, 'As I would later tell the law enforcement officers that were just a minute behind.... ' it currently reads 'As I would later tell the law enforcement officers that THEY were just a minute behind....' That doesn't even make sense.
I was tired when I ran this segment through Grammarly, and it shows. I allowed it to make changes without asking myself, 'Does this still mean what I waned it to mean?' In this case, the answer was NO! Oh well.
Thanks again.

I hope you manage to get moved before your north country gets some
serious snow. As for the story, it's a heart-stopper. OMG! Thank heavens for people like you who are there to pick up the pieces and put people back together.
