This chocker's plane, Starfly 1 from Trampton, go ahead. She's saying she didn't call anybody. Do you guys have any bottles for any chance of the patient? She didn't call. Somebody else calls four. Last name of (name withheld) called four. Bye. Okay, she's on the front porch talking to this. We'll check with the neighbor and see what's going on. Where's the 4245? I'll probably want from command there and reassessing her model signs right now. Steering by. Here, I don't know from whom. And just so you know, we do have about 30 pounds of ice. And cold IV flu, I guess you think the patient needs to be treated on the scene, otherwise we'll plan on just extricating her. Message received, I do believe they're able to amulate her down to the riverbed. From what I'm being told, sounds like she's stable, just unable to get out due to the prolonged period of time out here in the heat. I understood, and does it make sense for us to transport her as well? I'll let you make that determination. I do have TempleMedic 6 on scene as well over here at the Command Post, but I'll let you make the determination when you make patient contact. Yeah, Roger, we'll do it. It's a nice easy, probably five minutes flight for us back to Temple, so that helps you guys out with more than happy to transport. Command's Direct, I'll consult with EMS here at Command Post and see if they have any requests. Starfly 1 from Chalkridge Command, EMS advised. You are welcome to transport to Temple. So we'll see you shortly. We see. We see. Command, we're over ahead now. He's trying to find you in the creek bed. I got your head down there. Yep. See you. Starfly 1 from Swann. I'm going to put Rush 5-1, the rescue team, on Heelot 1 to communicate with you.
