Default My New Gig

My mom works for the AZ Dept of health and they were looking for a family advocate for the EMS for children committee. My mom asked if I was interested, and I of course said yes. This is going to be a great way to get my voice heard on our most recent hospital experience (if you can remember that). I am looking forward to doing this, and hopefully help make a difference for the kiddoes like Addisyn.

Question

Congrats on the new gig. Do you mean EMS as in emergency medical services. Or does that mean something else in your alphabet soup then in mine. If it is emergency medical services pm me I'd like to talk to you. This is an aria of passion for me.
