Kudos, St. Charles-area first responders

On Tuesday evening, Nov. 10, I experienced what I believed to be an extreme allergic reaction. I am grateful to the 911 dispatcher who advised my husband and me to pull into the St. Charles North High School parking lot to await the St. Charles Fire Department and Paramedics, who arrived shortly after our call. Thank you for your expertise and professionalism and delivering me quickly to the Delnor Hospital Emergency Room. To the ER doctor, nurses and techs that evening, thank you not only for your professional care, but your patience while I negotiated a frightening episode. I am privileged to have received such exceptional emergency medical care. Thank you, first responders.
