I think a lot of us see how much 911 has been abused so we think, oh, we don''t need it. Sad. I''m still more than glad that mother''s friend, who found her after an heart attack, had read similar in our local paper, more than six years ago now. So she called the ambulance (and an emergency doctor) at first before calling us. Getting an ambulance and getting proper care, once you arrive at the ER for your
