To have to treat a woman who is the same age as your mum is bad enough , but to also have them have the same disease as her mumma 😢 thats just unbelievable how strong she is 😢
Paramedics saved my sons life, im forever grateful for the paramedics of the NHS ❤❤
❤❤ THANK YOU NHS ❤❤
They also saved my mums life when she went into cadiac arrest due to some of the troubles related to her cancer they turned up so quickly they talked me through cpr till they arrived :( mum passed away around 3 or 4 weeks later in hopsital as she never returned home she was 46 more like a friend than my mum

I just want to hug her the patient and the paramedic is such a sweetheart. ❤️🖤
To sit and cry with her 😢 angels on earth
Thank you to all NHS paramedics across the UK. I owe my life to them after suffering 2 cardiac arrests and 4 respiratory arrests due to COPD. You guys are true heroes. ❤
From the NWAS - SCAS and the other Ambulance Services. I just want to say words cannot express my gratitude to what you all face on a daily basis.
my daughter is a Newly Qualified Paramedic- more balls and compassion than I'll ever have.
We're all proud of her. :)
Hey, she got those qualities from somewhere pal, don't sell yourself short.
I’m in awe of how paramedics can keep their emotions at bay while doing this type of work. It requires so much discipline and self control. Amazing work
I’m going through the same thing at the moment and my heart goes out to her. My waist length hair, gone in a fortnight. The side effects are a nightmare…..and mental health is a big thing. So many people going through this…including me. We all just need to be kind ❤
Sending you tons of love, light, healing, prayers and kind thoughts. You are not alone and are so loved. From us all and your angels who are with you every step of the way. 💚🤍💛🙏🏻🙏🏻🕊🕊
I really hope you get well soon. Thinking of you 🫶❤❤. I cannot even imagine what it would be like. You’re genuinely such an inspiration and don’t forget that there are so many people with you. Love you ❤️❤️
No one better than those who help us.
Jess is such a beautiful paramedic
That woman is absolutely beautiful and it pains me to see her so sad and going through such an awful illness 😢😢
In awe of these people
personally i think she handled that Very difficult call very well,Never stop being the beautiful compassionate person you are young lady,we need more out there like you
It takes a special person to be a paramedic, you need a lot of heart ❤
Fantastic young ladies. Their mums' are no doubt incredibly proud.
The ambulance saved me sm ❤😢. The blonde girl crying in her arms thought 😢😢😢
My mom passed away at that age so this hits home. I miss you everyday and it’s been 14 years.
paramedics were amazing with my late mom..at least 6 times before her death.
wonderful wonderful people, got so much love for our NHS ❤
I so relate with Paula. Wishing you and your mom the best. From the emergency services perspective - we need to be there for each other, just as her partner was :)
Wow, these are some BEAUTIFUL souls. Anyone that has anyone in their lives like this, cherish them.
Oh and yes I’ve been a Paramedic for over 3 decades true blessing
I’m a Paramedic in central Texas this girl we go a long way and make a huge impact on caring for patients god bless her
To every paramedic out there thank you above all for saving our lives everday your the best ❤❤❤
Have the utmost respect for all these paramedics they are just amazing. A very difficult job to do that I could never do but some people manage to do it. Thank you for the job you all do. ❤
Cancer is something that you don't embrace. Why would people say that. I've lost many loved ones and relatives to cancer. People should be supportive of her through her treatment and make her feel supportive
Embrace in this situation means to accept what is happening, and do what you need to take care of yourself. Like this lady reducing her work hours, and not being ashamed to wear a headscarf or of any other changes her body may go thru.
I think she was referring to losing her hair. I never realised telling sufferers to embrace being bald was such a big thing until my cousin got cancer and so many people would say that her.
Respect to her , on the job I'm usually devoid of all emotion , it's later at home when all those emotions come bundling out .
Salute for the NHS 🫡
Lovely ladies. Guys the work you do my God. You’re all angels. Save my life and my baby’s once ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Having cancer and working 9hrs and healthy people can’t go work for excuses she is a legend I pray she recovered in JESUS name or found peace x
These are the true heroes ❤
Really do feel for you my mum had breast cancer and had a year round of chemo it’s horribly painful to watch them go through that hopefully we find a better treatment for cancer sometime in the future💜💯💜💯
I send hugs to all of you! 🤗🤗🤗🤗
Aw both lovely ❤
Don’t know how that paramedic doing on that day if it was me with Jess I cuddle her aswell poor Jess
Bless her
Heroes..❤❤❤❤
Bless their hearts. They are earth angels.
Speaking of which, to anyone who has ever lost a loved one and is struggling, just know they are still with you in spirit every single second of the day. They love you unconditionally, watch over you and are free of pain. You will see them again. They are well, young and joyful again together with their angels.💚🤍💛🙏🏻🙏🏻🕊🕊
We love our NHS❤❤❤
In the US it is a business, it costs thousands of dollars to ride in an ambulance
Hundreds 😂. When I was in the US I used an ambulance, it was $2,300 plus some more for the actual treatment they provided. They send me letters here in the UK all the time begging for the money 😂 haven’t bought toilet paper in months.
@@JoeWilson738I have chronic health conditions and I would absolutely be dead if I was American. Their medical costs are beyond insane.
@@jonathanlandau-litewski7405 No you wouldn’t, you’d be as you are now.
@@JoeWilson738 I've been unable to work for 3 years though cos of my health. I feel so bad for those in the States that lose their homes and everything because of medical bills.
@@jonathanlandau-litewski7405 That doesn’t happen, the poor have their bills paid.
Wow, treating a patient that identical to your mom... It sucks. I regret deeply being unable to go and give Jess, and Abi, and especially Ms. Paula a big hug. They're all just strong people
The only word that comes to my mind is "ANGELS".
That's it, say it good and proper for the television.
On an unrelated note, she's very looks so pretty. And her accent! 😍
Simp
@@samphelps9690how dare someone show compassion eh
@@jonathanlandau-litewski7405 thats not compassion. its not simping tho. I'm likely to be called a simp too when I point out none of us should be talking about a clinicians attractiveness. hardly the time or space.
In the USA, they are hero’s too. Until you get the thousand dollar bill
I have a really big question
So me and my twin we both want to be paramedics and I was wondering if like there are rules like we arnt allowed in the same ambulance or not on the same shift?
If possible can you answer my question
There’s nothing to say you wouldn’t be allowed together. There are married couples, best mates etc that end up on shifts together. You’ll usually get given a crewmate after some time and you’ll work with them for the majority of your shifts. I know colleagues that pick up overtime shifts with their partners, mates etc.
It’s so rewarding so the best of luck to you in pursuing it.
@@b.c3073 thank you I showed my twin your comment and we’re both thankful
There are no rules against it. In fact there have been multiple partners on this show who are brothers/sisters/couples
So many beautiful women in this video
Weird comment
@@itsweb1584 It is is fucken weird now that you mention it! I didn't mean anything creepy about it though lol
@@davidmouzayek3764loool
Too bad the government is driving off the good people of the NHS
I personally would refuse chemotherapy if I had. Cancer
What is this show called?
It’s called ambulance
This job is for aged experienced people , it’s too hard!😢
i have a bff name paula
💛🤍💚🙏🏻🙏🏻🕊🕊
I wouldn't be tearing up at all.

As much as I empathise, nobody is born with a thick skin.Take it on quickly or you are going to break day one.😏
Why would you rub your eyes whilst wearing contaminated rubber gloves. Jesus! Medical professionals my arse!!
😂 relájate amigo todo eso es actuado
That is uncalled for. Yes, you have an opinion, doesn't mean it needs to be voiced. Please see the positive.
@@antoniocruz6074Err, no it isn’t?
She wasn’t using her gloves for anything other than taking vitals, temperature, blood pressure etc, so it’s absolutely irrelevant.
You must be fun at a party!
