Greetings everyone,

Welcome to our 3rd San PelÍcano Stories! Sometimes, you just have to take the time to help others. That's what happened in our new (fictional) testimony!


"Everyone says that as the years go by, time seems to pass quicker and quicker. I also think our relationship with time has changed over the past few years. Everyone’s always rushing around! At my age, running is a luxury, so you just let time go by, as if you were an onlooker. What life has taught me is that time spent with love is the most precious thing there is. Once it’s gone, it’s lost forever.

When I see all these youngins racing against time, jostling to get onto the metro and honking their horns at each other on their drive into work, I can see myself a few years ago, keeping an anxious eye on the clock. Nowadays, I hardly take any notice of the time. But when I do take a look, I realise how far the hands have moved.

I don’t really know what caused this accident, but time definitely played an important part in all that. This person was driving so fast; they might have shortened their trip, but only to end up hurtling into a catastrophe. Looking on, I saw the car knock down this lady at the pedestrian crossing. At that point I did start running something I hadn’t done for ages.

These days, everyone has their eyes glued to their phones, though'll admit this time it was thanks to one of those devices that an ambulance responded so quickly. For my part, glancing at my watch as I kept the victim company, was all that I could do. I was really struck by the image of the paramedics, who knew exactly what to do, so much so that I signed up for first aid training. If I’d known the right actions to take, I wouldn’t have been caught in the thrall of time that day. When I go to the classes, time passes even quicker, but that’s because I have so much fun!"

Greetings everyone,

We're back again with an other San PelÍcano Stories! As a paramedic, when the radio calls you, you don't have all the information for the sake of efficiency and to avoid unsettling you. Dive into our new (fictional) testimony!


"Don’t talk to me about karma or destiny.

All I see is a child, as cruel as he is innocent. He’s playing with one of those little maze toys, where the aim is to tilt it to move the ball toward the exit. Except that in our scenario, the child is happy to shake the object, just to see what happens. I’m the ball, and I have to handle the consequences of all this senseless violence.

We already knew that we were going to get the call when we heard the explosion. On the radio they always have more information than you, but they settle for giving you the bare bones, for the sake of efficiency and to avoid unsettling you. So when they start to sugar-coat it, you can guess right away that you’ll never be ready to face what is happening on the other side of the tower blocks, where the billowing smoke is darkening the sky. You turn on the sirens and strobes, check that your colleague has, like you, prepared for what’s going on, and off you go.

When you’re there, you need to shut off all your instincts. Otherwise, you’ll be out of there like a shot. Then, you need to crank down your emotions and stay pragmatic to stop your legs from giving way. At the time, I didn’t even try to understand what might have caused this disaster. Everyone needs help, so you work as quickly and efficiently as you can, without asking too many questions. We knew that we couldn’t save everyone, but when a motorway structure collapses onto a petrol station, giving it your all is the least that you can do."
