Thanks everyone - it is greatly appreciated.

Lets all be careful and let others be the DD (Designated Driver) if you've had a few at those X-Mas parties.

Amen to this! My sorrow is slowly turning to anger, mostly at the drunk driver... although some is reserved for those medics that declared her dead and left her there to die.

But according to a police officer familiar with the incident, police told paramedics at least twice that the woman was still breathing.

"They kept telling everybody, 'No, she's not. ... She'll die in a few minutes,'" said the officer, who requested anonymity because he is not authorized to speak about the case.

Don't get me wrong; I understand the concept of triage, and I also have some understanding of the injuries involved, but I also know that SAFD has more than 2 ambulances on duty and that they could have toned out another unit (rather than leave her out there for 2 hours in the cold).

That is just wrong... That leaves me utterly speechless.

well gang, the funeral's over, and I'm back at home, you'll probably see me back on tonight or tomorrow, since I could use a distraction.
