Outrageous and Traumatic Medical Stories as Told By the People Who Lived Them

He Never Expected to Become a Teacher

My brother is a paramedic, and he said every time, practically without fail, dispatch would downplay the calls. So one call he had was for a girl “with minor bleeding.” He arrived and found her 14-year-old brother frantic. His 12-year-old sister was bleeding everywhere and wouldn’t stop.

My brother braced for a major cut and expected a blood bath. Instead, the girl was terrified she was a goner….because of all this blood coming from between her legs. So that became quite clear quite quickly. They called the mom and she got on the phone to explain to her daughter what was happening.

She asked if ambulances had sanitary pads, but they don’t carry them. He did however use gauze to make a temporary pad. The mom ran into the house, thanked my brother profusely, and hugged her daughter. He never expected to teach someone about the menstrual cycle. Small_Palpitation898
