About this ebook
I react not knowing the outcome.
Each experience is never the same.
My brain scans the area before I go in to assess the situation.
I notice as much detail as my brain can record, and then I react.
All this happens in a millisecond!

I knew from childhood that I had something inside me that seem to care about the well being of human beings and wildlife. My mother whom I love very much would let me play in the hills of San Francisco full of trees, and open land full of wildlife I learn to enjoy having wildlife around me, I began to care! I would also go to church and hear words of care and love toward nature and people from my father the Reverend, and other Pastors, As I grow in age I saw on television movies about heros who were helping people and saving lives all of this experience had an profound effect on way I view life, and people. Later in my life I became a boy scout, a leader in my church, a nurse, a counselor, and a first responder.
