Description:Ambulance Man chronicles the memories of an earnest kid with a huge visual appetite, burdened with a learning disability that leaves him hypervigilant and ever watchful. As a grand distraction from his childhood boredom and anxiety, and with an odd attraction to disorder and chaos, he developed a savant-like skill for locating crashes and mishaps throughout small town Stillwater Minnesota by 'siren chasing.' Although he was intensely interested in all things emergency (police, fire, medical), it was the majestic Cadillac ambulance and the calm, lean ambulance workers, whose duties were mostly hidden that held his special reverence.This childhood pursuit led to his training as an EMT and joining the crew at Stillwater Taxi and Ambulance Service. Casey recounts his deficit-laden learning process and unconventional entry into ambulance work in a self-deprecating and poignant way, while recounting car crashes, heart attacks, drowned kids, and the characters that made up this small-town world.
