  • Be careful but don't be fearful with Ernie Boxall
    Aug 3 2021

    This is the last episode of season one and a very special episode.
    I start the discussion with Ernie Boxal, my guest, and he is sharing his experience of having 3 close calls of being involved in traffic accidents.
    What we have been saying all along these 15 episodes is that it is better to learn before getting injured and this is exactly the story with Ernie. He was never injured in a road accident although he did come very close on 3 different ocassions.
    Ernie is a storyteller and you can learn more about him by following the link bellow

    What makes this episode special is that we are closing the first season with a reminder of some of the messages shared by previous guests. So, please listen to this episode all the way to the end where you will be listening to the highlight of each episode. Guests messages on road safety.

    And if you feel that someone you know needs to listen to these messages, please share the episode with them.

    Season 2 will follow soon with more real stories from rreal people, so stay tuned.

    Thank you everyone for listening and for helping me raise road safety awareness in memory of my dear friends Sotiri and Effie.

    My 20th road accident anniversary is only 2 days away, an emotional day for me with memories that bring tears to my eyes. The feelings are strong and sometimes is hard to think that it has been 20 years since my life changed for ever..

    I will continue to raise road safety awareness because I don't want anyone to go through what my family and I went through.

  • I learned to slow down with Niall Finn
    Jul 27 2021

    On a main road at night, Niall Finn, my guest on this episode, was travelling too fast, possibly over the speeding limit when a car came through a stop sign onto the road in front of him. Last minute he managed to swerve around it but his car tipped over and rolled several times. He was thrown out onto the road from the driver's window and was very lucky to have only minor injuries. Scratches and ripped clothes but not any fractures.

    A few words about Niall. He was born in Africa, grew up in New Zealand. Worked in France, Germany, Netherlands and Luxembourg as, respectively, tourist guide, English teacher, marketing employee and translator. Today he is living in retirement in Greece, on the beautiful island of Crete. The reason he wants to raise road awareness in because he lives in an area with very bad driving standards like dangerous overtaking, poor use of signals, excessive speed and distacted driving..

    Listen to Niall experience, he is sharing some very interesting facts and thoughts. If you want to get in touch with him send him an email on niallafinn@yahoo.co.uk

  • What do I do now? with James January
    Jul 20 2021

    James January was burned September 1991. He was Branched but not Commissioned, Regular Army, Military Intelligence...a fancy way of saying that he got burned his senior year of college.
    At age 21, everything he worked for went up in smoke when the vehicle he was driving had some issues, to put it mildly. At one point the braking did not work properly, swerving out of its lane & rather than hit the oncoming car, taking out the family inside, he steered the truck right when it wanted to go left.
    He remembers reaching through flames to undo the seatbelt as the truck was skidding on its side. The other guy got out quick, it exploded on him before he was able to climb out the passenger side window.
    He was burned 85-90% most of it full thickness burns every where except where he was wearing shorts and shoes. After a period of struggle, due to both his injuries and a search for something that would challenge him, in the mid 1990’s he became involved with the North Carolina Jaycee Burn Center, specifically its education, prevention and post burn programs.
    He has immersed himself in anything that deals with burn survivors and their family and friends, anyone who works with burn survivors, and the prevention of burn injury ever since. He believes any program designed to work beyond the hospital doors...anything dealing with the prevention of burn injury, life beyond a burn injury, or getting the patient from living to thriving in spite of a burn injury...functions best with a well trained, highly motivated burn survivor as part of the team.

    From such foundation, has sprung BurnSurvivor.org

    "A sot of burn trauma think tank if you will. We work with burn survivors, their family and friends. We work with those who work with burn survivors. We work to prevent burns. We seek to become a resource and networking center for burn survivors, burn care professionals, firefighters, family and friends. Encourage the development of programs that go beyond the operating room. Recruit and train burn survivors to be part of the burn team. Become a resource of support and education."
