As a firefighter with Post Traumatic Stress received during a call after 24 years on the front lines with the Calgary Fire Department and after being turned down and taken through the wcb appeals system of review over a three year period I can say, that this will save lives. Google naffvn and look at the web site for first responders. Well done. Shannon Pennington Executive Director/Senior Chief North American Firefighter Veteran Network in Alberta
