Summary: <p>Join me in this deeply personal episode of A Medic's Mind as I journey back to 1998, a year forever etched in my memory. As a fifteen-year-old, my understanding of the world was turned upside down not just by the encroaching flames of a devastating wildfire, but also by the challenges faced by my family, particularly my mother's battle with cancer. Our story of survival, resilience, and the indomitable human spirit takes another turn in 2021, as I, now a retired paramedic with my own battles of PTSD, face the flames once more. Dive deep into this narrative as we explore the impact of wildfires on personal lives, the struggles of PTSD recovery, and the beacon of hope that always shines through adversity. This episode is not just my story; it's a testament to all who've faced challenges and emerged stronger. Whether you've been touched by nature's wrath, navigated personal traumas, or are seeking tales of resilience, this episode resonates. Please share, leave a review, and join our community as we find solace in shared experiences. #WildfireStories #PTSDRecovery #PersonalJourney </p> --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/amedicsmind/message
