On April 10, in front of the 166 Bunn Drive office building in Princeton, a man driving a dark gray Honda rear ended my 2015 Honda Civic. The incident was very traumatizing. The Princeton Police Department and the Princeton First Aid Squad came to the site of the accident within three minutes after I called the Princeton Police Department.

Members of the Princeton First Aid Squad convinced me it was necessary to go to the emergency room at Penn Medicine/Princeton Medical Center. I wish to thank the Princeton First Aid Squad for the compassion they provided toward me.

I wish to thank a nurse practitioner who was very compassionate toward me when I was in the emergency room. I also want to thank the ER nurses fr their human compassion and for a job well done.

I also wish to commend a senior citizen who at the time was working in the emergency room as a volunteer. He not only offered me a sandwich and a soft drink, I called my minister to come to the ER to provide me with the support, and the senior citizen volunteer offered the minister a can of ginger ale.

Whoever this volunteer is, he should be provided a paid position if an opening comes up. I was in the ER for approximately five and a half hours, and I think the ER physician made the right call by ordering an avalanche of tests.
