That was a really awesome thing to do, man.

Nobody's kids will be killed.

For what it's worth, my eyes have been -5.5 and -6 for about ten years now (since 18). Never got any worse and the contacts I wear are super slim and not intrusive at all. I wouldn't worry too much about it. That said, I have considered laser surgery - friends who have had it done say it was quick to heal and only needed a few days off work to recover. The earlier you opt for it, the more money you'll save on correction.

UK here, my old man was a fireman for over 30 years till he retired recently. I don't get on with him too well, but I always had the utmost respect for what he did and how he dealt with the horrible experiences he had to endure. For reference, my mother is a nurse and my stepdad is police, and I've always felt the same way about them.

How do you blow off steam when you've attended something horrible, be it a traffic accident, an industrial fire, or a suicide? Do you have family, kids, a wife? How do you avoid taking it home with you?

Lots of respect for what you do man, I wouldn't be strong enough.
