To the Editor:
On Sunday morning, Jan. 29, my husband, Bob, woke up with severe chest pains, nausea and numbness in his legs. I called 911 and it seemed like in no more than five minutes four or five volunteer EMS and first aid squad ambulance people were at our door in Barnegat Light.
It is hard to describe, in all the terror and chaos I was feeling, how fast and efficiently they started to work on Bob.
