Nathan Gardiner, a resident from Eersterivier, expresses his gratitude to officers Pamela Zotwa.
A resident has taken to social media to applaud and recognise firefighters stationed at Ottery Fire Station for saving his life and transporting his colleagues to work when he was too weak and sick to do so.
Nathan Gardiner, a resident of Eersterivier, expressed his gratitude to officers Pamela Zotwa and Craig Apollis, who went above the call of duty on the morning of May 22, when he became ill behind the wheel while transporting his colleagues to work.
He said his symptoms started that morning with bouts of vomiting.
“In the early hours of May 22 at approximately 12:30am, I woke up feeling extremely nauseous, which led to repeated vomiting. Unsure of the cause, I drank some water and returned to bed,” he said.
