Whoever gives happiness is returned with happiness. That’s the moral the story Ambulance Girl has given us. The heroine used to be a raging hypochondriac. She was sensitive about illness to such extent that she never watched a popular serial medical drama. However, one day she saw a sign which read: A Volunteer EMT Wanted. She said to herself, “If I can face bravely what scares me, I may possibly save myself.” Then she took some relevant courses, acquired a certificate and became an EMT. Later on, she offered a deal of help to many people in trouble, and dealt with many emergency cases. With the passage of time, she has demonstrated in an increasing measure capabilities and expertise, and has subsequently won wide respect. In the meantime, she feels least scared of illness, even death.
