While sitting down to dinner, we heard a lot of commotion a few sites down, followed by a woman running and hollering for help. I'm a first responder, but no medical professional by any means. We discovered a teen boy lying in the dirt, obviously burned from head to toe. My recent training kicked in, and anyone with any medical training jumped in to help, moving stranger's trucks, ripping clean sheets off their beds, offering bottled water, keeping the boy out of shock, anything to help before the paramedics arrived. We were able to save a life that day, but the image of the scared boy lying in my arms will never go away. It was a lesson on the dangers of campfires for everyone.
What an experience, thanks for sharing.
