Want to be? Firefighter/Paramedic
Story? So far I've had three back surgeries, the last one a few weeks ago. Due to many mess ups by the first surgeon who diagnosed me with scoliosis. And suggested surgery, 16 months later to find out it shouldn't have been done. I've got a back brace I've got to wear for 4 months. It'll be two months before I finally get my driver's license and get to start riding out at the fire station again. People keep asking me if I still want to be a firefighter and I keep telling them "yes". It's something I've dreamed of for several years, as well as something I feel God is calling me to. Of course I'm "only 16" and much can change before now and the day of graduation, but I also know that I could never dream so largely without having Him behind this.
