09/25 Fireproof Your Marriage

Quote From: megmillspaugh

Dr. Phil,

   I am married to a Paramedic and have been around EMS for awhile now and I am very insulted at the fact that you failed to mention anything about EMS people in your show today. This show was very touching to me because our family is effected by everything you have mentioned today. Paramedics save lifes and lose lifes just as Firefighters and Police Officers do and to leave them out of the group of Public Service individuals today on your show is insulting to every Paramedic and EMT that has saved a life, had to come home to their family, have no way to vent and take things out on the their family members. Our Public service workers need better care in their mental health while on jobs!! In the future I would hope that you wouldn't forget about the men and women that may need to save your life or one of your family members! Nothing upsets me more then when people forget about the job that my husband carries out everyday!

Very UPSET & Offended Wife!!

I'm sorry but he didn't leave you  out. He specifically mentioned, "all first responders" several times. I'm pretty sure the category, " all first responders," includes EMS.

I agree with you!! I am a Paramedic and have been doing this for 18yrs.  Police and Firefighters deal with death everyday?  Lol.  We in EMS deal with people dying everyday.  I am not aking anything away from the police and fire, however, EMS alsways gets left behind on recognition.  I do not think Dr. Phil did his hoework on this topic.  I am an advid watcher of his show, and I could not believe he left us out...He probably does not read these blogs anyway...
