Non-Fiction. My life on the Los Angeles Fire Department as a firefighter/paramedic and currently a captain. It is not as glamorous as you might think. At times it can be very insane and surreal, and yet, when the bell goes off we go out the door to fix a strangers problem. Unfortunately, sometimes we don't come back. It takes a special breed to answer this calling. Enjoy the ride Mama told me not to come.
