出门，车才转弯，见一老太正站在对面一apartment，试图拉住门口一栏杆。老太穿得
蛮艳的，红的top. 老公开着车，我也无聊，就继续瞅着那老太。Next thing I saw，
老太似乎没抓住栏杆，只见她90°角朝后倒--摔了。
赶快嚷嚷，：老公，老太摔了。老公犹豫了两秒，把车转了头，开回去了. 我一下车，
我一边叫老公call 911，一边挺着9个月的大肚子朝老太奔去。
老太，还活着，躺在地上腿不能动，手在乱甩. Conscious; airway good, breathing
fine, circulation without problem……老公在三尺外站着，犹豫要不要插手。这时
，有人call in。我急叫：挂了，打911. 却听他在那说着老太的事。原来他打了911两
秒，挂了。911 called back。 抢了电话，I gave them a brief description and
located the address (shame on me, I had lived in this area for two years but
did not know the name of the street). 我告诉911我认为she hit her head, 虽然
我还没仔细检查她。报了我自己的电话，911说我们送人来了。
又冲回去看老太，问了些问题，老太似乎没反应过来她怎么会躺在rock般的水门汀上 (
she might have thought she was just smoking at the door of her apartment—I
saw a cigarette right beside her。我向她解释了我的witness。老太让我扶她起来
回到她的apartment。我考虑到她有可能会伤到cervical spine, 我非常
straightforward地告诉她，for her safety, it was better for her to stay where
she was. 此时，老太侧头来看我，她手摸着后脑勺。诶有哇啦，老太手上全是“鲜红
鲜红的鲜血”--动脉血。我又瞅了老太脑下，呼啦呼啦的鲜血。老公从车里拿了一件备
用衣服为老太止血。我则在地上一边跪着keep her neck stable (9个月，不容易啊),
一边说: sweetheart, keep your head and neck still; sweetheart, it is ok. The
ambulance is on the way here…。。。老太说，“我不去医院，我要回我房间”；
一会儿瞅瞅自己的血手，“我哪儿出血了”。
I am getting very anxious when seeing这鲜红鲜红的鲜血. 911, 咋怎么慢啊。似乎
，度秒如年。终于，7, 8 分钟后，一辆救火车很淡定地驶来，parking, 3个paramedic
向我们迈着中步走来。我重复了我的witness，然后就在旁边看起了热闹。可能老太还
能talk, 这三厮很淡定地悠悠着。一两分钟后，一辆救护车呜啊呜啊地来了。又是三厮
。担架扛来了。
功成身就，老公和我就闪了。车上，我跟老公唠叨911会带老太去哪个医院。 老公则更
愿意讨论the responsibility of bystanders. 虽说救死扶伤存在一定风险，但看到老
太倒在地上，不管不顾，我很难做到。从然，老太不因bleeding或intracranial
hematoma而伤死，也会因这热天中暑。
总结：
1. 纵使不愿be involved, 911要call。(It is safer not to jump into fire or
water unless you are sure you can do it. Don’t stop and approach an
appearingy-broken car, especially some 黑驾驶员.)
2. (每州或不同) Tell the 911 where you want to go, especially trauma or
stroke level one center. 根据州法还有911和某些医院的协议，ambulance can take
the patients to the closest hospitals if the patients and families do not
express their wishes. It takes an ambulance another 5-10 minutes to arrive a
bigger hospital. However, it takes at least one to two hours to get
transferred from a local community hospital to the Level one center. Time is
life; time is brain. Usually, Level One hospitals have privileges to do
more aggressive procedures and respond faster.
3. Never move a trauma victim. Once the cervical spine gets damaged, this
person 非死即瘫。
4. Don’t hang up when you are calling 911. They get your number easily
and quickly. 911 is free. However, if you hang up, local dispatcher would
call you back. It costs (猥琐，鄙视老公—just kidding。)
