I was in Vietnam participating in a Junior Ranking Tennis event

scenario that I am choosing to write about is one that I will never forget. It was around Christmas time and I was working the night shift in a local Emergency Room‚ which was a level 3 Trauma Center. Over the radio‚ we heard dispatch sending an ambulance to a home of a child not breathing. That particular night was slow. We did not have many patients in rooms.

I heard something about a new rumor about cruises disappearing in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. It was like the Bermuda triangle. A new way to sell souvenirs I thought. The bags were packed and our passports were lying on the kitchen table‚ ready to be used for the first time. My family was somewhat poor compared
