>Dear Friends of trauma:

>Our city, Las Cruces NM, has suffered an airmedical tragedy.  Our local

>Sunday night killing all five aboard including the patients, a young
>mother and 15 month-old infant.
>
>In a rural setting such as ours, airmedical transport is a reality and
>necessity.  As a flight nurse in E. Oregon I know how often these
>tragedies occur, having lost friends and colleagues.  Each time we lift
>off we understand that this flight may be our last, but that is what we
>do to help the living.
>
>There is no indication that this flight was in any way imprudent, this
>is just the reality of living in a rural setting.    Please, send a
>prayer or though for the families and employees of our EMS service.
