Hey Everyone,
I need prayers!
I haven't been on here much lately, My wife is battling lung cancer. She has Small Cell Lung Cancer which is in the extensive stage, due to the fact that it is in both lungs, both adrenal glands, lymph node in the right side of her neck, and outside the lungs on the medial sternum.
She begins her 2nd round of chemo on Monday. then Radiation sometime in the next 3 weeks, Probably with the 3rd round of chemo.
We need prayers,
Also, if anyone knows of any good sources for financial support, I am open to suggestions.
Thanks,
Jim

Mr. Kirkwood,

Thank you for the information. I've been a paramedic in PA for 6 years and I'm looking at moving to a nicer area to raise my children. I will certainly take a look at Wake County and any further tips or info is always greatly appreciated. Thanks again.

Hello Allen,

Because of state law, NC has one of the largest collections of county third services in the country. That's the good news. The bad news, if you're from the north, is that there are no public employee unions. There are job opportunities for paramedics, with entry level salaries in the 34,000+ range for new medics, up to maybe 46,000 for an experienced medic. Jobs usually include retirement, insurance, uniforms, etc., etc. Check out www.wakeems.com for our agency info.

Hello All. I'm an NREMT-P from Pennsylvania, and I'm looking to move south with my family. I was wondering if anyone had any advice on places to work in North Carolina or for that matter working conditions in N. Carolina. Any help would be appreciated.

Good morning,
I am currently enrolled in Cawtawba Valley Community College's 2 year Paramedic program. I am hoping to connect with Alumni of CVCC to gain any insight they may have to offer for becoming a competent and caring Paramedic.
