So, I was at the store that I work at having a conversation with my boss and suddenly I see a group of people surrounding something. I couldn't see because there was a car in the way. Luckily the car just moved so I wouldn't have to run out there.
There were about 3-4 girls our there surrounding a little 10-12 year old girl flat on the ground. I noticed A COUPLE of them had cell phones, so I figured probably don't need to call 911. So I waited a few minutes to listen for anything.....nothing. The girl was not moving or anything, she is laying on a concrete with no shade at like 95 degrees. I pulled the trigger and called 911 and let them know and I was waiting for the response "Has already been dispatched" they knew nothing of it....
I was quite surprised to hear that none of those girls over there called 911, they just had there phones out surrounding her and seeing if she was awake. After I noticed they picked her up (10 minutes later) they were taking her to her van. The people that were picking her up were her family. I had already called 911, so, I ran out there to notify them and tell them to wait.
The mother than says this ignorantly...
"Your supposed to wait 15mins! before calling an ambulance, she has epilepsy!"
I told her off after she said that....I pretty much said all I saw was a little girl out cold/dead laying on the ground with a heat index of 110 for like 10 minutes. I had no idea she had epilepsy and I could of cared less what she had, all I saw was she was not moving. (few bad words were in there too).
Epilepsy or not, I would be sh** scared if my kid zonked out on me all the time especially if she just collapsed on concrete. She made it seem like no big deal. GAR! people annoy me..
Pretty much what happened a cop and an ambulance came and checked her out, I stayed out of it soon as they got there, so I dont know the story after that.
