An Emergency is an Emergency

The other day I had a medical treatment.  They imbedded an instrument in my body and I was  to returned the next day for it to be removed. 

It also came with an electronic gadget on the outside with a leather case and a window to show several on-going facors.  Most importantly was the power on or off light.   It showed it was on, which was good.

The nurse explaining al this to us said don’t worry, you cannot turn it “off”.

Back home when we placed it on the table I accidentally touched something I shouldn’t have and it made several flashing   lights then the power was gone.

We could not figure out how to turn it back on.  They told us when we picked it up if we had any problem just “call them”.  

We “called” them and no human was available.

We had a non-operating medical machine that was paying big money renting and nothing happening. 

It was an emergency to get get it running again.

We called 911.

In minutes an Emergency vehicle with its lights flashing backed up in our driveway.

Three technicians hopped out readt to do whatever needed to be done to save the day.

They did.

The lady who seemed to be in charge got on the phone and over road all non-humans and talked to  a someone who told her to get it working normal again.

All’s well.
