I agree 100%. My father exercised regularly and took care of himself. He took a stress test in September and PASSED NO PROBLEM. This is the second time I've heard of a stress test inaccurately diagnosing any severe atherosclerosis or blockages. The only way they saw the blockages was through arterial catheterization. My father wants to tell everyone consult your doctor and see if this is an option. It may save your life or another's one day.

Hey guys here for an update-my father was responding to a full assignment on Monday when he suddenly collapsed. My brothers from WPFD used an AED to bring him back almost immediately. He went in for surgery yesterday and all went well. The doctors expect him to make a full recovery. Thank you for all your thoughts and prayers.

White Plains does have a volunteer division but pretty much never gets called out. In reference to response time, North White Plains may be a little closer than Purchase.

it may be safe to assume back in the day (way before my time of course, about early to mid-20th century) an emergency vehicle had one rotating red light on the roof and a siren like you see in all the old movies. we have come a long way since.

i'd take a good ol' caprice any day or even a late '80s box caprice. i heard the white plains pd aren't as fond of the chargers because they have more blind spots than the crown vics.

i don't know the exact details but the way the houses are laid out in that area it appeared to have originated in a bedroom. by the size of the fire and the speed the fire dept. arrived on scene, it appeared to have been a quick and easy knock down.

we need to replace the green carpet playing surface (or felt or w/e it is called) on our pool table in the firehouse. we do not want to get rid of it because it is still in good shape for its age. I was wondering if anyone knew a local company/resurfacer to replace the carpet on the pool table. Thanks.
