Cocker and Pastic are the first Whit- by Ambulance Service attendants to be indue- ted into Whitby's new stork club. F'ree Press Staff Photo Whitby Ambulance really delivers It was a swif t and uncomplicated delivery. In fact, the birth of Devon Ingham went pretty much as her parents Jon and Jo-Anne might have wished at the time except for one minor detail - they didn't quite make it to the hospital. It was the tail end of a long night, the fifth night in à string of 12 hour shifts for Whitby Ambulance at- tendants Russell Pastic and Derek Cocker when the dispatcher broke the still at 4:24 a.m. and asked if they wanted to deliver a baby. III said sure," recalled Cocker last week on the dual occasion of Devon's first birthday and he and Pastic'sinduction as the first members of Whitby's own Stork Club. Although the pair had received obstetrical training while attending Centennial College, neither had deliverd a baby in the field. If they had had time to think about it, Cocker admitted he might not have been so quick to heed the caîl but as it happened, time was in shorýt supply. At the Ingham's Cedar Street home, meanwhile, Jon was busily trying to make amends for the fact that Devon had failed to consider his well laid plan. Realizing the arrival of the newest member of the family was imminent, Jon had spent the night on the couch, fully lothed and ready to make a quick exit at the first sign from his expeci tnt wife. At around 4 a.m. Jo-Anne began to experience considerable discomfort and Jon moved ino high gear. Packing Jo-Anne and their then one ycar old son llory into the car, Jon suddenly realized he didn't have his wallet with him and ran back into the house to look for it. By the time he had located it it was too late. "lWe're not going to make it," said Jo-Anne coming back into the house. It was at this point that Jon phoned the ambulance and set about trying to make Jo-Anne as comfor- table as possible. Jon thought the living room might be a nice place to have. a baby but Jo-Anne mixed the idea in favour of their bedroom. Devon, however, had other ideas and the couple neyer got any further than the kitchen. When Cocker and Pastic arrived on the scene moments later, the baby was already crowning. "We dîdn't have time to glove or anything. Didnt have a chance to think. We knew what we had ta do and we did it," said Pastie. 'It's funny how things come together in a situation like that. " It was only after Devon was cleaned up and in her mothers arms that the group realized Jtory was not among them. Dashing outside, Jon found the boy perched up in his car seat gazing happily at the flashing red light on the roof of the ambulance. It was in appreciation of Cocker and Pastîc's timely assistance that the Inghams decided ta start the Whitby Stork Club, tearing a page from the Department of Ambulance Services in Toronto which annually bestows awards on attendants who have delivered babies. Now that they've taken care of the lub's first two inductees, the Inghams honourary chairmen of the rather exclusive organization, will continue to administer the awar- ds for the Whitby Ambulance Service. And the next time the service is called in ta make a special delivery, you can be sure the Inghams will be more than happy to see they get the recognition they deserve. =Iloilo.8111111811maI I 11-1 iiim ,ui -M m ITIrw.,M m m -How can a rebate be improved?
